Well, I'm from New England, but no Boston accent. I also don't have a New York nor New Jersey accent (but my Mom is from the Bronx and denies that she still pronounces things like "wall" as waul." The only people who tell me I have an accent are the people from the deep south (duh, it's because I talk too fast for them) or people from Maine. In Maine, they make fun of our "lazy T's" and stuff like that. Personally, I think they're nuts. If anyone knows what they mean, feel free to explain it to me.
You know, I've learned not to trust others when it come to accents. Some people are really bad at identifying accents. There's this guy in my design class who's from Australia, and everyone thought he was from Boston! I said, "Aside from the way he talks, did you NOT notice his obsession with Asutralian football?!" He came in one day wearing a jersey! 
Darn, I had an online test to determine your American regional accent, but I can't locate it.
