Mohawk Valley, NY to become the new Silicon Valley in fab fab deal

Yep, let's compare the valleys.

Earthquakes aren't good for chipmaking. Score for NY.

Plentiful water is needed. Score for NY.

Plentiful electricity is needed. Probably score for NY.

Cost of living? Score for NY.

Local wine: NY is catching up (the days of cheap labrusca are over).

Snow. Score one for CA if you hate the stuff, but upstate folks love the outdoors, skiing, skating, etc. They do have snow plows, boots, and warm coats.
