We have quite a few indoor installs and I hate them. There are many issues
that you can't control: access to the radio (as mentioned below), children,

Everyone I've ever spoken with and myself agrees - indoor installs are not
something you want to do.

Honestly I find it best to do it first thing Monday AM before they get in.
Then they can't check e-mail and the secretaries can't listen to online
music, go to Facebook or do IM and it suddenly becomes an urgent issue.
Great to play the office staff against management. :-)

notebooks and a PC as well. Perhaps also a tivo, xbox, ps3, ipod touch,

We don't charge to set it up, if the purchase it to install with the

We charge $10.00 to setup one they at install or if they bring it to us.
Otherwise, standard $60.00/hr on-site fees apply.
