Our friends across the mountain with Meet The Geeks have helped to produce a film about what makes Asheville a great place for technology:

Asheville is at the center of a diverse technology community and outstanding resources to support new-economy industries.This 10-minute film explores a range of assets in the area which help entrepreneurs, software developers, advanced manufacturers, and engineers move their businesses forward in Western North Carolina. A solid technological infrastructure, skilled workforce and committed support system make our region a true hotspot for innovative progress.

You can check it out here. It is well done and good stuff. Would love to see us get something like this organized for the Tri-Cities.
