We do, but we’re becoming more compartmentalized. I’ve got a couple of computer guys, an installer and me, jack of all trades and tired of technology.
Those guys can’t swap jobs, so it gets handed to the appropriate area pretty quickly.

The retail store sells the Lenovo line that we sell to our contract support businesses, they dont move alot of them because theyre business class models outside the consumer market rice, but it keeps them on hand for us.

It’s a grey fuzzy line between when you are fixing their internet and fixing their network or computer. I always felt that customers felt we should fix things for free and not charge after all they pay us every month. Its been easier to have a reliable local tech company to refer them to.

Where do you source them from? Is there a decent mark up? It seems like I get asked a lot about where to buy a new one. I think most people would pay a little more if you helped them decide what they need. For the most part they are clueless as to what all the options are. Do you custom build? What has worked best for you? Thanks in advance. Rex -- All parts should go together without forcing. You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.
