I know, I know – this looks like a ridiculously obvious commercial ploy. I admit I am somewhat biased, but this issue is truly a great resource. I won’t go on and on about the literally hundreds of product listings and supplier contact details, or even the reference material. I won’t wax enthusiastic regarding the online extras, like videos, spec sheets and RFIs. But rest assured, I could. The bottom line is this issue will help you and your business, and I honestly suggest you check it out.
