PC and Blow-Dry

This article was about Handtech.com and its technology consultants that sell PC’s to friends and neighbors, who are also welcomed to join the company. Donna Higgins, who is one of 8,000 members of Handtech.com, sells her PC’s including Internet connection, software and peripherals to customers at a salon she also works at. This companies’ aim is to bring a PC to the many American homes that don’t have one.

Although, this company had fell though in July of 2001, the concept still goes on. The new Handtech team has a site (http://www.tim.handteam.com/index.shtml) that provides training for those wanting to become a member and new consumer products such as computer hardware and software. Currently becoming a member is free but there is no guarantee of income. 

In my opinion, I think working at a company that markets their products is not really a good idea. It seems that many companys that do so, either abandons the project or fails to succeed. This kind of occupation doesn't even promise any kind of income for there work, so there's really no future in joining these companies.
