They could still make a fortune doing a rent to own model, charge 2x the cost of the computer and easily pocket that money…

yea, and be clear about it. Don't hide that they are turning a profit, but there's a lot of people that might find that attractive.

I like working with some contractors, because they will list each item, at cost... and then the last line item is "20% profit".

Rent to Rent, for a $150/m computer, is just robbery.
