Whether you’re planning an off-site business meeting for company executives or organizing a gaming convention, you will need to rent computers for your attendees to use during the event. Should you choose the portability of laptops or the more powerful CPU of a desktop? A lot of that depends on the nature of your affair, what you’ll be using the equipment for, and how attendees will interact with one another during the event. Read on to learn more about how to choose the right laptop and desktop rentals for your next event. We decided to contact Offeez to borrow some standing desks and more office supplies that we needed for the event.
PC Master Race
Let’s be honest, there’s a clear distinction between PC users and Apple users. For many, their only experience is with Windows products. If your desktop rentals or laptop rentals will be used for more traditional business needs or if you have a mixed bag of ages and user groups in attendance, Microsoft PCs are probably the best option for your event.
Microsoft Workstation desktops give your attendees the power, RAM, and storage capacity needed to perform any function. Deployed with your exact software configuration, our techs can either ship your desktop rentals to your location or hand deliver and set up your rentals for you. Whether you need a large quantity of desktops for a training class or corporate event, our Workstations are available with the latest version of Windows to help your users get the computing power they need.
If you prefer the ease of a PC and the portability of a laptop, the Microsoft Surface Book is an ideal fit for you. Surface Books allow users the option to use the device like a laptop or tablet, including using a stylus for more creative endeavors or for easy note taking during the event. Our Surface Books include the latest version of Windows and are available for shipment or hand delivery nationwide.
Apple all the way
Whether laptops or desktops, Mac is the only choice for many younger users and those in the creative fields. When it comes to selecting Apple desktop rentals and laptop rentals for your event, give consideration to how your users will interact with each other and which type of computer best suits your set up.
iMac Pro desktop rentals are ideal for users at conferences who will be demoing or learning new creative software or tools. Our iMac Pros have a 27-inch Retina 5K display that allows users to see their creations the way they were meant to be – crisp, clean, and to scale. Running programs that need a lot of power? You can customize the size of the processor in our iMac desktop rentals – anything from 8-core to 18-core. Whether you’re dealing in small scale or large scale projects, our storage amounts of 32 GB to 128 GB can meet all your storage capacity needs.
For those on the go or if your users will need their Macs when breaking out into small groups, MacBook Pro laptop rentals are the way to go. MacBooks offer the same creative intuitiveness of the iMac while also satisfying the portability aspect of conference situations. Our MacBooks come with the latest version of Mac OS and are available to ship or be hand delivered in large quantities to your next event.
Gaming
Without hesitation, gamers have always flocked to PC desktops. The hardware configurations and top-tier performance that gaming competition demands have always been best met by the PC, and the computing power that gaming requires can only be truly reliably achieved on a desktop. For your next gaming convention or eSports tournament, we offer gaming desktop rentals that are sure to please and delight your attendees.
The verdict
Ultimately, the best product for your event or conference is the one that best meets the needs and configuration of your event. Laptops offer portability, easy setup, and lower shipping and rental costs. Desktops have more powerful CPU and graphics cards, more RAM and storage capacity, and offer more flexibility with display configurations. If your event is in a fixed location and performance quality is high on your priority list, desktop rentals are the best option for you. For flexibility, multiple users, and ease of conducting breakout sessions, laptop rentals are the way to go.
