Then there's the problem of ownership. Imagine this: you rent this
computer. You use it for games, sure, but everything else too: email,
content creation, online banking, etc. But times are hard; you've lost
your job, money is tight. You can't afford the monthly subscription
anymore. NZXT can seize your computer -- and all the data on your
hard-drives. Are you comfortable with that idea?
Why would they seize it? It says month to month, cancel any time. If
someone couldn't afford it why wouldn't they back up or delete their
shit and send it in?
Overall I don't see this is much different than other computer rental
scams (I mean offerings) that are designed for people with fucked up
credit who can't qualify to finance one and are bad at math.
