    Important Notice: Equipment Rental Project

    CONTINUED FROM ABOVE .... More financial backing would mean greater subsidies for the general consumers. We really hope that the new owners will be able to further reduce the rental fees and provide easier access to the equipment. Due to all the crappy red-tape, I am unable to disclose...
