I am moving beyond just selling hardware now and offering service to small and medium sized business and need a good name that reflects a company selling information technology...
I thought some of you creative types might be able to give me some inspiration.
I was thinking something like Innovative Technical Solutions or Livewire Technology... I am not the most creative person obviously.
Creamy Inner Thighs Computers also has a nice ring to it.

Do you have any partners in this business? What are your initials, names? Anything can be combined into something catchy and creative?

hahahah "Penatrode". Cyberdine systems is also win.
I have basically two very separate divisions in the company. One is my main website and services business which is the majority of what I spend my time on.
I also sell on all the auction networks... Usually my unsold or overstocked equipment goes up there for quick profits. I keep my main division and the auction stuff totally separate.
The main reason for this is I provide next to no support after an auction sale is made due to the slim profit margins involved.
Another reason is that auction whores tend to be total whiny penny pinching jews from podunk towns in the midwest and if they can get a hold of me they think their entitled to me helping them on the phone for an hour explaing the intricacies of the cut and paste operation in MS Word and when I don't help them they get pissed because they bought a brand new computer for 20 percent less than what Dell is selling it for. Man I hate people on the auction networks, but it is a viable way to make money.
I was thinking about changing my name on the auction networks to "Ninja-Computers" and making all my ads ninja themed and comical to say the least.
Seriously, if you were cruising eBay for a computer would you buy from someone with a gimmick or would you be mored inclined to buy from someone average or with a more bland professional ad?
One of the keys to selling in the auction networks is keeping people on your add long enough to hook them for a sale... I was thinking a bit of ninja comedy my do the trick.
Thoughts?
As far as my main business I still haven't come up with anything. I wanted to go with Agilent Technlogies but it turns out that is already a massive company.
I also have been tossing around the idea of GlobalNet, LiveWire Systems, Techtallica Heavy Metal Computers...
Hmmm... ViagraTech could be good too... "Our computers are so great they give you a huge boner! bUY NOW A+++ seller!"

As far as Ebay goes, imo you'd be better off making it look as homey and inviting as possible. I tend to avoid the obvious companies because of the perception that they are too busy to correct any problems promptly. Someone who's dealing with 100 auctions a day is more likely to miss a payment or send the wrong thing and getting hold of them to fix it is a bitch.

My prices are so low you'd think I am insane! (I am also a pedophile, but I don't think that comes into play here!).
