My dad (whose computer I built) often asks me why I don't go into business for myself, building and fixing computers. It is, after all, what I seem to have a passion for. The problem is there are two types of people in the business: independent no-talent hacks who charge next to nothing, build crap computers, and fix almost nothing, and corporate no-talent hacks who charge way too much and do about the same. The market's flooded, and customer satisfaction's always low. If I were to open an upstart computer repair and build business, it would be months before I would even get a single customer. Most people are either figuring it out on their own, the way I did, calling their troubles in to unhelpfuldesks in India, or just scrapping their current machine and buying a new, prebuilt one from Dell or something... or worse: Apple.
