Another question i have is who do you look up if there's a problem you cant solve. I have the start up its just i have no one to look up in person if i run into a problem. And that bothers me. Also how do you start with a company that's been around and you want to work with if you don't have experience?

Well, if you are having problems you can look up to us like you are doing now. If I have problems I usually do a bunch of research online. Lots of reading, lots of googling, that sort of thing.

I then put together what I've read with what I know and draw my own conclusions on how things should be done.

As far as starting with a company. It can be rough in times like these and its really who you know and how you go about presenting yourself.

For me I landed my job at a local PC repair place a few years back when I went there every day during lunch. (I worked at radio shack next door) and I would ask them questions that they couldn't answer. What happened next was a bit of luck.

Their PC tech was leaving and taking a new job. They needed someone, and fast. One of the other employees suggested they ask me because "i seemed to know a lot about the subject" so they asked me to apply.

I did, and I spent 2 years having a rather good time earning my rent and bills during college.

I would get some experience before starting my own business. I have been working on computers for many years before I started my own business. Start by working on Friends and Family computers. Try getting a job in the field or doing contract work. If you look you can find some freelance jobs and sometimes you can even find something under gigs on Craigslist.
