Many of them are not aware that the US federal government offers a tax credit for research and development of new products. Now, I'm not a tax expert, but it appears that this tax credit is worth looking into. It means filling out IRS form 6765 with your tax return. Many states, including Georgia, also offer a similar tax credit. So, if you use Big Blue Saw for R&D, consult your tax expert about ways to save on your business taxes.

I didn't want to announce it until I had the press release ready. It has a couple advantages for you, the customer. Some of you have told us that you don't trust PayPal. Others would like all of their online shopping information stored in one place. Google Checkout is a good deal for us and for our customers. We'll still continue to support our existing shopping cart and credit card/eCheck payments via PayPal.
