Sure but there of course are valid use cases.
For example, I run a digital agency, and we're 100% mac based for everyone. I would definitely consider renting a super top of the line windows laptop and trying it out as my primary machine for a month or two to see how it compares. I'm not committed to the concept so I don't want to pay a lot of money, but comparing an entry level PC to my top of the line MBP is a pointless exercise.
There are lots more examples, you could think of dozens. Like I want to see if I would use a drone much after the first week or two if I had one. And on and on and on.
I'm not convinced they're going to thrive as a business, but at least as a basic concept the premise isn't ridiculous.
