There was an overflow into Seattle. There was an existing talent pool, and costs were competitive for small companies compared to the bay area. The 80's and 90's supported a pool of about 150 electrical engineers in the Seattle Area serving small companies. I am one of them. I stopped the video to comprehend the VU tube meter circuit shown in the textbook.
Then things went overseas.
Microsoft became a big player at the end.
If they heyday of Silicon Valley was like the Cambrian Era, then Microsoft and others who moved things to China constitute a Permian Extinction.
