[Discuss] Collection of New England "resources"



All,
This weekend's emergency has had me thinking I was wondering if it would be
worthwhile to create some pages on the BLU site where we can list resources
such as consultants including their areas of expertise like programming,
sysadmin, DBA's, networking, etc and brief summary of their areas of
expertise and their contact information.  It might also be beneficial to
add vendors such as ISPs and colo facilities, hardware/software vendors,
etc to the list.

BTW, speaking of vendors, I'm not sure how many people have had issues with
CDW or other vendors but for the past 4-5 years I've been dealing with a
local NE company called AddOn Data.  They can meet or beat any quotes from
any vendor.  I've even had them Dell's own internal sales rep's prices on
Dell hardware.  Not to mention it's nice to support a NE company instead of
some company way out in Texas. If anyone is interested, Sherri has been
with them for 14 years and is amazing.
