I am organizing a memorial service for my friend on May 24th but I wanted to do a slideshow on my Macbook and use a projector to show it at the service. Problem is, I have no clue where to get one to rent for one day for a good price. I’ve seen them as low as $89 but I’m only going to be using it for literally an hour. Does anyone have one that I could rent for a more reasonable price or know of a place?

just buy one from walmart and return it?

you probably don’t want to borrow somebody’s expensive one since they are fragile and you don’t want to be stuck eating the repair / replace costs. with walmart you can say it was broken when you tried to use it worst case.

why would anyone want to buy one for $1000 and return it, when they can just rent one for less than $100?? saves you the trouble in case walmart wouldnt want to return it

well I can understand that logic…but you cant because you know how much money is in my bank account lol.

Basically, I’m very responsible and I would not break it. Plus, I would have the person who owns it check it when I return it while I’m there and make sure it works fine. Or they could come to the service and I would pay them to sit there and make sure that nothing is happening to it. I dont care honestly, I just really need one and wanted to know if anyone had one I could borrow, thats all.

I might be able to do something silly cheap as long as you know someone on here that I have met before in person and could trust as it seems to be for a good cause.
