Some villages in the state are inhabited almost exclusively by farmers and contain few, if any, residents with other professions. Yet these villages are home to growing businesses specializing in the rental of computer hardware and internet access devices.
Which of the following, if true, best reconciles the seeming discrepancy described above?

  1. The businesses specializing in the rental of computer hardware and internet access devices buy their wares from outside the state very cheap.
  2. The few educated professionals who do reside in these villages all know each other well and often keep making visits to these businesses.
  3. Many residents of these villages who use internet frequently prefer renting the hardware to buying it outright.
  4. Many residents of these villages must provide for the net access requirements of visiting children and grandchildren who otherwise reside in cities but make frequent visits home.
  5. Computer hardware and internet access devices available for rental are of the same quality as that available for sale in the stores.
