I'm on the verge of taking a job in the DC area and wanted to know if there
were any good programs in the area for UX or Interaction Design. Any help or

Question on Labs

I know this is the kind of question that probably gets posted all the
time, but I wasn't able to find an answer searching the archives, so
here goes!

Has anyone used a lab in the New York City area that they'd recommend
for usability testing? We need something that will allow about 12-20
observers of one-on-one testing with some level of formality (video,
logging, etc). We'd be using Morae but I know some labs don't let you
bring in video equipment so that you use theirs...

Of course, we're looking for something that's no too expensive.
