For me it's a curiosity about what it would be like to live there. Of course I already know what Silicon Valley was/is like. I went to a grocery store in Catalina when I was there and pretty much everything was priced about double the mainland. When I was a printer I used to check out the local print shops. I went to one in Jamaica and the guy was very friendly and showed me around. He was quite proud of his equipment, most of which looked like something we would have junked years ago. But he was making a living with it.
