Silicon Valley is back . . .with a Kennedy as First Lady and a global twist
Tony Perkins [Always On]:


Life is good again here in Silicon Valley. A lot different, but good. Gone are the dot-bombers who carried big titles, had little experience, and drove up rents in San Francisco. Gone are big expense accounts and the trendy restaurants that helped you use them. No longer is Highway 280 backed up to San Mateo for those driving into Sunnyvale, and you can now drive through downtown Palo Alto in less than 10 minutes.

Nasdaq is appreciably up on the back of strong economic trends and tech company earnings. And 2004 will be a huge tech IPO year with at least 10 blockbusters currently in the pipeline.

Claiming that 10 successful IPO's is a significant achievement reveals just how warped our sense of what's real - on the American street - has become.

"and you can now drive through downtown Palo Alto in less than 10 minutes."

....and through East Palo Alto in less than 10 seconds.
