Subject:new to contracting, all the usual questions From:rstevenson <rjstevenson -at- sprynet -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Thu, 21 Apr 2005 14:01:12 -0400
Hello all! I haven't been around for a bit -- got laid off and have
been getting myself organized. Since all of the calls I have been
getting have been for contract work, it seems like this is in my
future; I like the idea. I know there have been innumerable threads on
this topic, and am currently combing the archives for same, but if
anyone has any gems of advice to bestow, I would be very grateful.
Just at the moment, I am particularly curious about home office
setups/computer equipment that I might need to purchase. Does anyone
contract using a Mac, or am I going to have to buy a PC to be
effective?
