I worked for 4 big distributors and 1 shop the computer business is on its arse. I was made redundant from every one of them then shortly after they each went bust.
Complete lies, although that depends entirely on what you mean by computer business. Computer "Services" are on a huge rise because people cannot hire in house staff due to cost. They are also keeping old equipment for longer and hence need additional support. However small system builders and distributers are finding it hard due to lack of demand and shear competition with the big names. Would you pay £300 a unit from dell with 2yr warranty (great warranty from massive firm) or £350 a unit with 1yr warranty supplied by a small firm that could go bust any minute or not have the staff to serve the warranty?.
The company I work for who are in the "Services" area are doing better than ever!.
