No! No one makes money repairing computers in a residential setting.
Service people you like and get payed in booze or other stuff you need.
Do it cuz it makes you feel good and they really appreciate the help.
But to actually make a living repairing home computers...why it's easier to make money in the affiliate game and ya'll know how tough that is.
Computers are too cheap and on the verge on being disposable, customers are not total morons when it come to math. Why pay a guy for 10 hours work at $30.00 an hour when you can just buy a new box?
If I think like this, probably you think like this and no doubt your customers think like this as well and all those service calls you are expecting just won't materialize.
If you really want to make a go of it open a store front operation, and sell them as much hardware and software as you can to make up for the loss in the service dept. Do a lot of frowning when you boot up their box and tell them it's not reparable and sell them a new machine. That is really how it works if you want to make money in the computer biz.
Good luck with whatever you choose
