Same here.

The people that need that calculator wouldn't beleive it anyway...
The people that would put 0% down, get into a 30 year adjustable rate mortgage, with an automatic adjustment to 8% after 5 years...
Fortunately, there aren't a lot of those "deals" left on the market.

Until I clicked the link, I thought it was going to be about someone renting scientific calculators out so students wouldn't have to fork over the money for an overpriced TI.

I can't see how it could possibly be cost effective to rent something of as minimal value as a calculator, rather than buying.
