Hmm... what's here in Colorado? All I can think of right now is the airforce academy and I'm not sure if they sponsor any teams...

hmm in a perfect world we would be sponsored by google and apple, i wonder if being sponsored by google would help you to find the green light (get it hahaha sooo corny I know)

Well we already have a cool company, HowStuffWorks. (But, we will likely lose them, management change) But, anyway.... lets see.... big techish compainies/organisations and univeristies with operations in North Carolina... hmmmm lets see, Duke University, UNC-Ch, Sigma Xi, GlaxoSmithKline Foundation, SAS, Cree, BASF, IUPAC, DuPont, Cisco, Lenovo, Nortel, Sony, Underwriters Laboratories inc. (UL), and the mutha of the PC industry, designers of the fastest computer in the world, builders of one of the fastest semi-mainstream processors in the world, IBM. (Imagine what having them could do to your render times) And, I almost forgot, the company that has contributed a huge amount to the high tech/engineering professions, Krispey Kreme.Boy, that collection would make your team well funded in no time. (Which is why it's weird that NC has only six teams.)

SBC Communications. They have engineers building lanlines, Cell Phone Communications Towers, Servicing them, and programing them, also, we could try to get a special eddition FIRST phone.

Reallity Check: Motorola, GM, (Well, SBC could support us financaly,) GM(heard they are a good sponcer.), KSC (Kenedy Space Centere, not all of NASA, but a part of it). um..... all the wonderful sponcers we have now, EA, um..... Dell (They could give us all sorts of goodies.) and finally, Our school.....getting involved more, (we have some exposure, but next year, hopefull the whole school will be WHOLEHEARTEDLY behind us.)

One person/company I would lik to be sponsored by personally would be Arthur Blank. I know he has the Arthur Blank foundation which sponsors atleast 1 team in Atlanta, but I owuld love to have him sponsor us. He owns the Falcon's and helped start Home Depot. he is a great guy and a realy team player. He goes to the same Synagouge as one of our mentors too...
