Since we seem to be collecting our thoughts already, I'll be starting a new thread to keep track of them. All suggestions will be put into the thread we're in right now (it will be a very big help if you add your links along with the orchid names, as you've done aboe) and I'll move them over to the new organizer thread. It will be closed meaning nobody else can make entries in it...except mods...but they won't do that, right? 
I'll start working on it later...

choices - choices - choices
what wonderful suggestions everyone has made - It's made me review everything I have - 
I can't wait until we pick one - right now I want them all and that is dangerous for a non greenhouse owner - pretty soon the plants will overtake the house - but what a way to go!!

Phal schilleriana is stunning being scented and having variegated leaves but Phalaenopsis was one that was chosen for a past growing. I don't know if that will make a difference.
( I would love that one too! )
What about b. nodosa?
Hausermann has minis and compacts and has a 15% sale off plants through the month of July!

D, since a number of us are expecting Hausermann's orders right now it will give us a chance to see what quality, in the plants and the packing, that we would be dealing with. I doubt if the decision will be made by the end of July but maybe they'd extend us the courtesy that our previous vendors have
