I'll be away a few days, but here's a head's up on the best of ChannelWeb:

This week we've launched the latest edition of our quarterly State of Technology report, this time examining opportunities in networking. Networking: Growth In VoIP, Video, includes details on our research into VARs networking choices, as well as a look at the 20 Most Strategic Networking Vendors.

This week will be remembered as Bill Gates last as a full-time Microsoft employee. End. Of. An. Era. Don't miss our 10 Examples Of Bill Gates Telling It Like It Is, and Information Week's Peek Inside Bill Gates' Head. Enjoy your summer, Bill!

Coming up next week, watch for CRN's Emerging Vendors Special Report. Many solution providers find they can enjoy better margins, offer unique solutions, and avoid channel conflict by choosing lesser-known hardware and software partners. We'll run down the pros and cons of that approach, and toss in a databank of almost 200 small, but growing vendors in a variety of tech categories.

Next week is also the last to apply for our Executive of the Year award and our Fast Growth/Retail directory.

Happy Birthday, America! And you too, Canada!
