    Quick Question About Pricing a Job

    I was wondering what you would charge a business to format and install an Antivirus program on 8 laptops?

    typically no, but it would be easy to set up one laptop and then ghost the image to the other systems

    You didn't answer the question, what would you charge for doing that?

    Re: Quick Question..

    Is it going to cost you money?

    Also, make the title more descriptive, "Quick Question" tells me nothing.

    Costs me nothing, and is the title change better?

    For a company called Diginet, apparently their laptops have a virus on them, and they need to be formatted to Windows, updated/upgraded(they didn't specify what exactly they needed done, be it a Vista system update, or an upgrade to Windows 7) And have Avast! Home Editon installed.

    Re: Quick Question..

    I would only charge like 20 bucks or so since it only takes like 5 minutes to install...

    Good luck

    Hmmm, well I'm not sure that I've ever been in a position where I could make a suggestion, sorry.

    Off Topic: Yes it does.

    You have to register for each copy, I believe. I'd go for maybe around $80?

    Once again, I have no experience that qualifies me for making such a judgement; save for having used Windows and having installed Avast!.
