I don't know myself, Gil, but take a look at http://www.computerjobs.com/ .
They list computer-related jobs for many regions of the country.
The Texas region has 7,431 jobs right now (it's a big state!). The Atlanta
region has 5,755. If you go by the numbers, those are the hottest, followed
by New York and Chicago.
This obviously isn't very scientific, but it's a start. ; )
