A friend of mine has a shop and charges $75/hr + parts (with a decent mark-up); and has a 1 hour minimum charge. A quick 'guesstimate' of the problem is $35 and will be waived if he does the work. A service call is $50 on top of that. He has more business than you can shake a stick at.

In AU most PC repair places charge between $88.00 to $110.00 per hour onsite and around $10.00 cheaper per hour inhouse repairs. Good luck I hope you do well I'm picking up my new company car to day I'm getting really excited now lol
