As a matter of fact, the entire 100 mile corridor between Austin and San Antonio is nicknamed "Silicon Gulch". San Antonio is the site of several computer biotechnology and electronics companies. (30) ............the "Gulch" will rival the San Francisco Bay and Boston regions in high technology will depend on its ability to spawn a succession of new firms as technology advances and changes.
