Just a PSA:
HPSP students are allowed $500/ yr to rent a computer. There are two companies that are actively renting to HPSP students: Tiberius computers and military pc rentals. I rented a MacBook Air from Tiberius, but they will basically purchase you a computer of your choice of up to ~$1000. You then pay an annual fee of $500 and then submit a reimbursement request to your respective branch. I'm Navy HPSP and probably won't be able to submit a reimbursement request until October 1, so I payed the first rental fee using PayPal credit, which is interest free for the first 6 months. So that means no out out of pocket costs, and as soon as I get my reimbursement, I will submit payment to PayPal- interest free. Take advantage of the computer rental! It's basically a FREE computer for 4 years!
