You could be a poor college student who has poor parents that can't afford to buy a decent new laptop. Particularly one that is damn-near guaranteed to last you more than a year or so without having troubles (i.e most business class laptops which are upper range by nature) and you plan on paying for it with that little work-study you got to make ends meet while trying to get your education. I think college students (especially those in science and technology majors) should be considered prosumers by occupation and should get business class support and quality in their products.
Of course the chief argument would be the monthly bill would be far more disastrous than raising the money, but sometimes its easier to pay incrementally.
