    Website Hosting
    Game Server Hosting
    Building Custom PCs... (Only ordering parts as people want them built)
    Selling Pre Built And Barebones PCs On Ebay
    1. Not a great deal of money, bit too much hard work
    2. Ditto
    3. Too competitive what would make you different and with only ordering parts thing, how do you get a part that dies for someone if the manufacturer doesn't make it anymore.... also most 'enthusiasts' build their own PCs, they are replacing parts every year sometimes to play the latest games that little bit better.. if you make uber PCs and charge like £1800 or so the people who call themselves gamers (but aren't) won't understand adding new parts when they pay that price and will expect it to run perfectly for the next five years. Also you'll need some form of customer services... and that can get really annoying, most problems are user related problems beacuse they screw up windows and don't give it tlc (malware, AV, firewall, registry cleaning, safe sites and software e.t.c.).
    4. Not enought money in it really for the effort and as above.

    All those markets are very competitive, Start local like Nana. (www.rogerkallaway.com).

    Matt: you want to plug that site a bit more?...lol

    Yeah just whack it in a high interest account and continue life for a bit. At 5% just left for 5 years you will have almost £32,000...

    Even if its only in an account for a year at 4% you will get a grand for nothing.

    I assume you have some kind of job at the moment? You can have a £1k payrise for nothing. Sounds fine to me.

    ALthough if none of these options sound good I'll PM you my bank details and I'll take the money off your hands
