I expect some actual computer knowledge here. There's a variety of things at my current job you can do. If you're stuck trying to install AIM, or figure out what the difference between USB and VGA is, probably need to skip this ... but if you have a genuine interest and knowledge in computers, I know a company that can reward you ...
In the KC area, please ask questions if you have them.

There's a few things you could be doing. The most important would be part time. On average, at my current job, I configure and ship 3 servers a month. They're heavy-ish (about 60lbs), and expensive (about $5,000). The installation of the software follows a very carefully planned process (4-page checklist), and you absolutely cannot screw it up. I would train you on it, so no huge worries there. You'd also be responsible for configuring new phones and developer workstations, running cables, working with Dell on hardware replacements, etc.
Additionally, we need someone who can serve as a product tester *or* customer-support engineer in addition to the previous tasks. The support engineer is the less desirable task, but we need it more. The support engineer will be on call, 24/7. As clients break our product, they'll log support tickets, which must be acknowledged within an hour. Other engineers would catch you up to speed on what's going on. The product tester has to be really good at breaking software / finding bugs, figuring out exactly how they did it, and writing instructions good enough that any monkey can reproduce the bug.
Any of the 3 are (likely) available for a part-time position. Support and server guy would be full time, Server guy and product tester would be 30 hours. Pay would be negotiated after resume submitted, etc, blah blah.
