I had someone hit me up for something like that before. It was a scam. Long story short it won't be some straight transaction where he'll give you a check or cash. You'll be reading that shyt like

I'd make him pay half up front, if he didn't then he----lets just say he wouldn't do it again

Also researched his company, they're legit

Charge $500 and most importantly build that relationship so they would call you again next time

charge as much as you can but honestly I think formatting 8 laptops and installing windows and a couple software packages on them is a simple task... but charge as much as you can

well... if this is what you do why ask...



Since this is a hustle there's no point of trying to do it legally cause it'd cost too much for the client. with that said there'd be no point of providing the windows 7 dvd's.

the dv2500 is one of the worst laptops ever made and surprised there're some still around. more than half of them should be going out pretty soon. about $100 per laptop is fair and call it good.

edit: if you must provide windows 7 dvd. get the enterprise edition so you don't have to deal with the license keys of the professional edition.

ohh they don't have a windows license?
