IDK about the computer repair biz, at least if you are looking to get a decent and reliable income stream coming and rather quickly. Not saying don't do it, just don't expect to greatly take-off.

I think mowing lawns is about the best thing you can do. Its all in cash (so no taxes), its easy to make a good deal of money for the time invested, and it gets you outside. Something easy to knockout in the mornings while its cool and have your day later on.

If some people already have lawn service, try to outbid them. If its pros, then they will have to charge a pretty good amount to cover costs and make a decent wage. Youdont need a lot of lawns to do either. Even if you can do 10 lawns a week @ $20, that's $200 in your pocket for maybe 10-15hrs of work. Not bad at all for a 15 yo.
