SB - The latest IT equipment for no capital outlay

Options
Being a small business and not having a lot of capital to outlay, but needing decent laptop etc for my business I came across a new option available at PC World.
The idea is 'Smartplan' where you lease equipment similar to company car agreements. It is powered by RentSmart an Australian company who's founder won Enterpreneur of the year and his company sits in the top 100 fastest growing companies.
It is 100% rax deductible (check with your financial advisor or accountant) but allows you to have the latest equipment for a small deductible monthly charge. With the option to upgrade in the 3rd year, means you aren't left with defunct and worthless equipment every couple of years and you can have the latest stuff for minimal cost and no outlay.
As a small business knowing the struggle of cash flow and neccessity of working IT equipment this is a godsend! Plus they can come and help you set it up for a small charge. For once I welcome new technology!

    Wow. Sounds interesting. Attraction depends on implied interest rate but certainly a good otpion for cash poor companies.
    I love it when a plan comes together :rotfl:
