Mishandled

I'm with Hamrah on this one. I already do what you are considering doing, but for fun/interest and a bit of extra cash, not as my main income. I mean things like new-builds, upgrades, installs and anti-virus type stuff. The sort of stuff that people take their PC into PC World for a Health Check for!

I suppose if you are suggesting to also help out 'very small businesses' then you would have to include Networking to that list. That said, there is an increasing amount of cheap, easy packages out there that may mean that a great number of 'very small businesses' will do it themselves.

I have met a number of redundant IT consultants. Some of them have forgotten more than I know about PC's, and they don't seem able to make a go of it...
