Ok, number one.... I just got my new 110", 16:9 Da-lite Model 'C' screen mounted. I'm in AWE! The thing is enormous. I can't even comprehend how huge this image is. I upgraded from a 76" screen that now looks like a baby in comparison.

Just had to share that as no one else I could tell is awake right now. :)

Now a quick contract question as my lawyer is also sleeping and out tomorrow.

I'm wondering about how, any of you who do consulting, deal with non-compete clauses. I'm in a niche market and there are only so many clients who use the software I work on. If the contract calls out no competition for one year, is that excessive? Can I ask them to change it? Can I ask them to remove the non-compete portion? How do you usually deal with it?

I think that's all I have at the moment. Thanks!
