Fedora Basic End User Rollout Support Operation

[Robert E. Martin, VCM Network]

Members:

 

I have been seriously contemplating developing a business model that is
targeting expanding the use of Linux for the everyday desktop use and in
small to medium size business.  I am not a computer geek or a highly
proficient computer specialist, which puts me in the same category of a
majority of computer users.  I have sold IT and telecommunications hardware
for over 15 years.  I am now seeking to build a business with a key
differentiator for an IT service offering targeting consumers and the SMB
market.  I believe I can do that with Fedora if I can climb some significant
hurdles.  I am looking for someone who has climbed those hurdles that I can
have a dialogue.

 

The hurdle is that Linux usage is very foreign to the average consumer and
SMB.  Linux is an entirely different system to navigate and administrate.
The layout, description and deployment of applications is in whole different
paradigm.  Fedora has many advantages, but in its raw state it is not very
user friendly.  I am looking to talk to someone who knows has to create a
user friendly approach to Linux that can be effectively pitched to the
consumer and SMB market.  My business model will simply be to set-up,
configure systems, assist with package application selections and train this
market for competitive price.  Can someone point me to the right person or
people who are doing it or potentially have the know-how?
