Why? Technology Leasing saves money:
Continuously upgrading computer technology can reduce an organization's total cost of computing by reducing the cost of operations, support, maintenance and administration, expenses known to escalate over time. Simply keeping technology current and consistent across the organization can greatly reduce these costs. Pairing computers with the same user for its lifetime in an organization, replacing that equipment before it becomes a maintenance problem, and having the ability to re-market used computer equipment are ways that planned technology saves money.
