[Malvern] Finding paid support

[Andrew Morris]

Hi Tony,

I am literally just changing employment, as of Tuesday, and the first 
part is to start contracting to a PC repair/support callout company who 
cover the UK using local contract engineers. Mostly this will be Windows 
from 98 to Vista (hey ... it pays), but Unix/Linux is no problem, I 
started my Unix career on SCO Xenix and I covered SCO to Unix System 5. 
Ledbury is not a problem, and nothing says I cannot do my own work 
outside the stuff sent by the callout company (I just can't cross the 
line with anyone who comes through them, for liability reasons). If your 
son-in-law is interested, let me know and I'll contact him.


Cheers,

Andrew Morris
