Was recruited in 1986 to begin selling service contracts for the original DOS 2.1 PC units and then moved up to computer and networking sales and installations for another company in 1987. Was increasingly busy with computer questions and opportunities and eventually started Providence Computers (named after God) at the end of the year and worked on some initial clients including my professors at Regent University (CBN).
