If you want to stay in the area you are in, I have a suggestion. Talk to 
your vendor's salesweasels. They know who is hiring, firing, growing, dying 
and having trouble keeping employees happy. One of the people being blown 
off in January at Vicinity (where I work) found several incredibly strong 
leads that led directly to the hiring managers through our Sun reseller. 
The salesweasel also has a vested interest in you being hired in a company 
friendly to him as he has invested a lot in relationship building with you. 
The salesweasel doesn't want someone in one of his customers shops who will 
be unfriendly toward him or his products.
