I actually think it may have helped in a very small way. During one of the interviews, the discussion turned a little lighter towards the end and we were casually talking about the newest products and which way the company was heading vs. the competition. I did do some research as well as talk to a good friend that's working there. So I was able to impress upon him the fact that I at least took an interest in the company. Shortly after that particular interview, there was an article in a local paper here about the very subject we were talking about. So, at least I was timely as well.

Thanks for all the well wishes guys. I'm sure it'll work out well. I'm very excited to start. 8)
