Try southern New Hampshire. Portsmouth, Salem, and Nashua support several
large outfits (some computers, some defense-- like Teradyne, DEC,
Lockheed-Sanders, Raytheon, etc).
There's plenty of work in Massachusetts that's well north of Boston-- places
like Andover, Westford, Billerica, Peabody, Lowell, etc. Consider contacting
some of the area headhunters, like Clearpoint or Microtech. You might be
able to find a palatable "commute vs. cash" compromise.
Good luck!

I used to live in Boston, someone told me there is a demand
there for technical writers. You might be able to do contract work from
Maine and drive to Boston occasionally.
