This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Also, the land is stable. For something as precise as chip mfg, an area that won't earthquake is nice.
In oil country, the land may be getting less stable. Korean Samsung (and planet Earth) vs Texan oil barons, I wonder who Texas will protect.
