So my brick of a computer has finally sputtered its last breath. However, I am picking up a new one in Hong Kong at the end of November (it's already waiting for me), so I wanted to know if there was somewhere in Seoul I could temporarily rent a computer for 2 months.

Anyone know of anything? Was wondering if the big places like Technomart do something like that. Cuz I've paid for my internet and it's just sitting there, rather useless. Any bits of advice would be much appreciated! thanks!

Get a used brick (older computer) for 100k somewhere. Look in the free newspaper that is on the pole outside your apartment. There are LOTS of them out there.

With PC bangs everywhere and the price of an entry level machine at about 400k won there is no market for short term computer rentals.
Long term leases are available but I have never heard of short term rentals here. If you found one it would probably cost more than a used machine.
