I know that we've discussed the topic of not working on computers from
time to time.  I believe that a lot of people talked about carpetry. I
personally imagine doing small scale electronics design (although I keep
hearing the margins are brutal) and/or a specialty printshop.

Anyway, the NYTimes has an interesting article, except despite all the
references to high tech, most of the people seem to be suits rather than
techies.  Nice seems suiots doing something usefull.

Anyway, what are other jobs that people would be interested in taking,
or starting businesses to do?
