Why would you want to repair computers when buying new hardware saves so much effort?

For computer repair? That's the only part that ever comes naturally; there's no commands to learn, no syntax...
As you use a computer over time, problems arise. Be it a browser redirect virus, HDD failure, RAM failure... it's as easy as matching the red square with the red-square marked slot.
How do you get started? Start offering your services. 90% of the time I don't know how to fix something I accept until I've done it.

Anyone that tells you that you need certs or degrees for this is fucking retarded.
