Business idea

Find stores that want to sell a pre configured media center pc

I choose hardware and configure the settings

People buy the preconfigured computer for a price. Extra $120 for on site configuration

Store gets $20 for selling the service

Maybe just say it's $100 for my fee and they can mark it up as much as they can

Can sell two basic systems. One cheap one expensive. Also offer upgrade options like extra hard drive, karaoke songs pre loaded, wireless network config

Computer = $700
Config server = $200
Store markup = $100

Total = $1000 + tax


Consider what needs to changed in the default installation

Who can load the configured image?  Would be nice if the builders can do that

Who would offer technical support?  It would be nice if user calls dell first. Restore of base image should be the first solution to consider.

Can media center run under a user that has reduced privileges? 

C drive for os
D drive for os image backup should be created once a month with a history of 3
E drive for media
Optional backup drive or mirrored raid


Home consultation is $100 per hour minimum 1 hour store keeps a percentage from the price.

Also introduce xbox 360 and ps3
