When Should I rent a Projector?
2007-06-15 23:14:00
LCD and DLP projectors are available for rent and or to buy from Rent acomputer.com. So what should you do buy or rent? That depends on price, location and convenience. If your presentation is in another town, lugging a projector thru airports into cabs, busses, trains and subways can be a high risk hassle. You can easily damage a projector when traveling. Tip: Never check a projector through baggage at airports either. Baggage handlers will treat your expensive projector like a suitcase.Here is when to buy: If you are planning on using a projector at a fixed location over a long period of time, then purchasing a new projector is a good idea. Tip 2: Never buy a used or refurbished projector unless it comes with a new bulb. Bulbs are very expensive. Projector bulbs cost between $200 to $500 for the more portable units. They cost up to $2000 for the higher end projector units.For more information on renting or buying a projector call toll free 1-800-736-8772

Prepare your Rentals for 2007 Conventions with a Plasma Display from Rentac
2007-02-28 16:45:01
Rentacomputer.com is now taking orders for 2007. We are reserving plasma displays to many tradeshow booths nationwide. We are renting plasma flat panel displays from 37"-61". If any one who is unaware of what a plasma flat panel display is, let me inform you how it works and how great it would be for any presentation.Plasma display is a flat lightweight surface covered with millions of tiny glass bubbles. Each bubble contains a gas-like substance, the plasma, and this has a phosphors coating. These bubbles are thought of as the pixels. Each bubble has three sub-bubbles one that contains red, one containing green, and the last one blue. Once a image signal is connected a digitally controlled electric current flows through the flat screen, causing the plasma inside the designated bubbles to give off ultraviolet rays. This in turn causes the phosphor coating to glow the appropriate color making your plasma display. There are millions bubbles glowing and dimming to make a rich, vivid im...

Plasma TVs have problems with ?Burn-in? or ?Image Retention?
2007-02-28 16:45:01
One more reason to rent a plasma for your tradeshow booth, conference or convention, Pixel Burn-In!?Burn-in?, or ?image retention?, is the result of damaged pixels. A pixel (short for picture element, using the common abbreviation "pix" for "picture") is a single point in a graphic image.Pixel burn-in has phosphors that have been prematurely aged. They glow less intensely than surrounding pixels. Damaged pixels develop a "memory" of the color information repeatedly fed to it, causing the phosphor to glow in a static manner for a sustained period of time. Over time, the phosphor color information actually becomes etched into the plasma-screen glass, and in some rare cases it can become permanent. Once these phosphors are damaged, they cannot produce the same levels of light output surrounding phosphors. But pixels do not suffer burn-in singly. Burn-in occurs in the shape of a static image that linger on TV screens -- things like network logos, computer icons, web browsers, software a...
