Does anyone know where I can find/hire a 24/7 tech support service? I have great support now but I want to be able to take a break and not check my computer every hour or so.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

I just did a quick search on Yahoo and found quite a list of oursourced technical support providers from A-Tech to Zund:

None of them appear to specialize in providing web hosting tech support, so perhaps there is a business opportunity for some enterprising hosting experts out there.

support outsourcing is a bad idea... third party will never offer the support you [or your own employees] can offer. But then again, it may save you some bucks in the middle, but will cost too much if you grow big...

That is probably the best way to do it. I dont like outsourcing support to a company personally I would rather hire someone to do it. You have more control over it.
