Are most of your customers local or do you do mail order stuff as well? Would you sell and ship me a computer if I wanted one?

I don't build them, I just service them and networks..

Where I live there are like 20 computer shops within 5 miles which means a lot of competition.. There have been many startups that closed after a year or 2.

Plus with Dell selling PC's for $400.00 how can the little guy compete?

Pretty spread out. Some in the Vancouver area. I would say the most in one area. The rest of us are pretty spread out. We have a few of us in the Okanoogan area. Then alot of members that are the only ones in their towns.

We are going to have a gtg at a central spot during the summer and take in some drag racing. Will have to see though.

Dell is selling them for less than you could ever build them for. Can you say volume.

Delaware is small. You can travel extreme north to extreme south in about 2 hours. East to west from 15 mins to about an hr.
