"You forgot an important step. To be a reseller, and work with
TechData/Ingram/etc you need to get a sales and use tax license,
otherwise those vendors wont sell to you. In PA, you file the PA-100
Enterprise Business Form for sales and use tax. You give that license
number to TechData, and your all set. I forget if you can DBA under
your own name with PA-100, if not you file a factitious name request so
as a sole-proprietor you have a real DBA name associated with the sales
and use tax license."


If you are starting a biz from the beginning, you may wish to 
investigate starting it from Delaware, which has no sales tax.  You 
could likely sublet a single office from a company that already has a 
lease on low-end office space in northern Delaware.  This company would 
forward you any mail that arrives.  Operate your business from a cell 
phone with a 302 area code.  Be sure that you cross every t and dot 
every i for a Delaware business.
