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?
