Totally agreed metal_geek.
I have my own home computer consulting biz that I work for through referrals only. Mostly older folks or familes who know the people I have worked for, also a few small farm biz enterprises.
Consulting for strangers is a tough biz. I only take a job after the demands/requirements/payment has been signed and agreed to in advance. I am also not cheap and I have a demand which about 30% of customers have balked at (even after agreeing to on the phone) - LinkSys WRTG54 router installed as well as reading my personal 84 page computer know how guide (generously spaced with lots of screenshots and written for first time computer users). Its funny how a 65$ router is a sticking point for alot of people - its also funny to see the look on their faces when I shake their hand and tell them to have a nice day.
