Maybe that's because you're in India. When I google "computer help" the website iyogi.net comes up somewhere near the bottom of the second page. Which is still respectable.

Apart from the fact that your comment is spam, the idea is interesting. For 120 USD per YEAR, iYogi offers consumers "unlimited support for all your computer repair issues on phone and via the Internet."

This price is possible because the support staff is in India. The Indians are reputed to be good at such things, so it sounds worth a try. But if I have a computer problem, I might first post it on twitter and plurk, to see if any of my fellow Second Lifers have the answer.
