For starters, having been involved in the computer industry since about 1990, I started Desktop Solution Center in 1995. It's was a combination of computer services, data recovery and programming services for a number of regional (GTA/Hamilton/Burlington region of Ontario, Canada) companies and individuals. It was a great side business until corporate downsizing in 2001 made DSC a full time adventure. It's been a great ride ever since.  Early in 2003, the programming business was split off and became Epictec with the data recovery and computer services staying under DSC.

If you are considering development, drop us a line at dcbour@epictec.com or have questions in computer maintenance, networking or security, do check us out at http://www.desktopsolutioncenter.ca. You can also check out some of the projects we've offered for sale to the general public. I'm sorry if you're looking for gossip or more info on some of our clients and partners. We treat client confidentiality very seriously as social engineering is the most common way to compromise security and I'd hate to risk our clients due to such stupidity.
