A couple of comments. This is not leasing but it is financing. Bundling the payment with the ISP is a neat use of assets. A clue to what GTW intends to do with the old computers was in an interview in which Waitt said the best sub $1M PC was their 2 year old system. I suspect that the Country Store will also be a part of the equation This is not about building computers. It's about marketing, financing and distributing and I applaud GTW for their efforts to differentiate.
