I do a load of private computer support and repair - mainly nothing more exciting than virus removal, reinstalls, ram upgrades etc - basic bread n butter stuff.
I have a customer (who really isn't struggling for money) who has just bought his wife an iPad2 and has asked me to get all of her data, files etc off of her laptop for use on the desktop pc they have - the logic being that between the desktop for work and the iPad for portability - she doesn't really need the laptop too. I would usually charge about £20 ($30) for something like that - hour or so on-site plus travel there and back (I know, too cheap) - he has said to me - sort it all out for me and you can have the laptop - I don't need it....
I just got the laptop today and I'm pretty pleased, to say the least!!!
