The inherently transient nature of the town's occupants creates an apparent lack of good Information Technology support. In order to deal with this shortfall and in an attempt to provide both businesses and individual pc users with cheaper, more personal support, Dragonstar Total Computing was born.
From August 1998 Dragonstar Total Computing has supported schools, small businesses and home users, in Port and South Hedland until relocating to Geraldton in July 2004.
Karl Edwards was employed by Hedland College from November 1998 until July 2004 in the capacity of Computer Services Officer/Senior Information Technology Technician where he supported and updated hardware, software and maintained network integrity for the College which comprised of over 400 PC's and more than 10 servers, over 4 campuses spread throughout the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
During this time Karl completed several Information Technology related certificates and a Diploma in Business Administration, with an emphasis on the Information Technology stream.
