Rick, seems that you non-compete is like mine was, no soliciting employees for a year, no soliciting from previous customers for a year plus IP/non-disclosure ... nothing of that prevented me for joining a new company even if the new company has common customers with my previous company; I just don't work with those customers, other people do.

Jim, non-compete, non-disclosure and IP go hand-on-hand or at least to me from a 'moral' perspective, I have been dealing with source code, customer information, NDA's, etc. most of my adult life (a long while by now ..) there is a 'magic' line that I will never cross. IBM's case with Apple regarding Papermaster was non-disclosure, I follow that case closely ..
