[ubuntu-us-ma] Who's experienced with offering Ubuntu conversions?

[Danny Piccirillo]

Alright so i still have a bunch of unanswered questions so i'll put them in
a convenient bulleted list ^^,

   - Do you do housecalls/drop offs/what?
   - How much do you charge?
   - Should i bother with dual-boots, or not?
   - What's the best way to migrate data: use some software to backup an
   image of the entire drive or just use an external hard drive to copy files
   over?
   - What are common problems, things to avoid, etc?
   - What's the entire process of a conversion?
   - How do you market yourself?
