I wouldn't pay anything to have it done for me - I enjoy doing it myself; in fact, it's one of my most favourite things to do. Watching all the nice bars slowly fill up... starting over... and in the end it's like you have a whole new computer. Ooooo... I'd do it again right now if it wasn't for the fact that I've already done it recently. |

i wouldn't pay anything, because i know how to do it all myself but as all my apps and stuff would be very time consuming, i'd maybe pay someone £10 i wouldn't pay anything more than £5 for a standard user (in example, someone who is NOT a muscian/computer geek, just a general home user) |

i'm asking because someone else (non-computer guy) asked me how much i'd charge to format and reinstall everything on his computer. i figure this will take at least 4 hours.. |

gouge him. say something like $15, people who are dumb with computers will pay for that because they know there's no way else it will get done. hell, a woman who lives down the street paid me $50 just to plug in a new monitor! and i didnt even ask, she just gave me the check. fastest cash i ever made, tell ya that. |

If you don't charge at least 50 dollars an hour for tech support people will think they aren't getting their money's worth. |

You should charge at least $25 for 4 hours work, personally I never accepted less than £8 an hour (about $16/hour I beleive?). |

I charge £30 an hour even for remote assistance and agree totally with you. :D |

Network installs of OS images is the best source of cheap income. |
