I don't think you would make it online, companies like HP and Dell and under sell you by a lot. maybe you could make it offline where people don't know what there taking about and you do (:)hopefully:))


don't let me put you down but I just tell it like I see it


edit: holy crap, your 12, you will never make it online or offline, you are just too young, who is going to let a 12 year old build them a computer

16 is still too young to have your own company, if I were you I would try to get a job at a local computer repair shop when your that age not a PC company.

Your never to young to follow your dreams...........


Son (I call you that cause i have a son your age, my oldest is 16). If your heart is in it, then go for it. No disrespect to anyone else but dont let anyone tell you your too young. I started my company at the age of 16, 17 yrs later im still at it. I had people tell me i was to young but i never let that stop me. I know a kid that started his own Paintball company selling parts and markers at the age of 14. He has a store front at 16. keep this in mind

You will struggle to start with to find people willing to place their expensive equipment in your hands, I'm afraid to say. You will need to overcome the age issue (which is certainly doable) by providing services to family and friends and branching out from there. The important thing to do will be to keep a portfolio of references from good job's you've done in the past, and soon people will realise that you can be trusted to do a good job.

I'm sure Thermaltaken will know a lot better than I do about the legal side of setting up a business, as he said he's been through it. But I would imagine there are quite a few boxes to tick before you're a legitimate business rather than just unofficial cash in hand.
 
thats how i was thinkin of starting it, but just labeling the cases with NanoPC or something, ya know.
unless thats illegal
 
My knowledge of company law is hazy at best, but I believe you could be sued if that name is already a registered trademark, and your company goes on to be big enough to be on their radar. You should find out if it's trademarked, and if it isn't, trademark it. Then you're covered in the event that someone else uses that name, you can sue them instead. I would think to trademark something, you need a registered company, but there's plenty of legal advice available and a lot to go through to make your company above board.
 
You'll need to check with the US Trademark and Patent Office, the place you'd go to trademark or patent any name, invention, whatever. On the left hand side - Trademarks/Search Trademarks/New User Form Search (Basic). I did a quick search and this was the only entry that seemed pertinent. The process was dropped a little over a month ago, but there's no mention of why this was dropped. It could be the terms is too generic to be trademarked. That sometimes happens to products after a long time in the public domain as well - the names become generic. Examples could be Asprin, Hoover or Portakabin. You'd need to look into that.

That's pretty much all I can tell you, that's pretty much all I know. There's nothing to stop you getting some professional legal advice just to feel things out, someone who knows what their talking about, because when it comes to company law, I sure don't. :)
 
hows this flyer?
