Rentacomputer.com Celebrates 20 Years in the Computer Rental Business

Cincinnati, Oh -This year, Rentacomputer.com Celebrates 20 Years in the Computer Rental Business

From 1987 to 2007, Rent-A-Computer, renamed Rentacomputer.com, is a computer rental company that has evolved with the personal computer industry.

“In 1987, the first computer we rented was the IBM XT, a 8088 processor with 20mB Hard Drive. We upgraded it with a graphics card and green screen monitor. We also rented the IBM AT with a 80286 processor. Our first Apple product was a Mac Plus. And our first laser printer rental was the HP LJ Series II.” said Rose Morgan, co-founder with John Beagle.

In 1997, Rentacomputer.com was one of the first rental companies on the internet. Rent-A-Computer created its first website, Rentacomputer.com more than 10 years ago. In 1998, Rentacomputer.com helped co-found a computer rental industry trade association which became the National Computer Rental Association (NCRA). “Three years ago, the NCRA changed its name to the IT-RA, the International Technology Rental Association to better reflect the international membership of the organization as well as the focus toward technology rentals in general rather than computer rentals specifically.
