I noticed the 2-10 employees thing too (it related to a company
with HQ in TN, wherever that may be). That didn't seem right so
I tried a different route, and a more promising company headquartered
in Bolton, MA, with a more sensible sounding number of staff, showed
up. I didn't get to see any job details though, because...

LinkedIn decided that as I didn't have an account wtih them, 
it wasn't going to let me look any further. LockedOut from 
LinkedIn. It's been doing that quite a lot, especially since MS 
bought them.

I wonder how many potential candidates are actually aware that 
VMS Software Inc is actively recruiting.

Anyway, VSI being in a position to recruit is A Good Sign. Being 
able to find the right people and employ them is even better :)
Best of luck to all involved.
