Question 1: State as many reasons supported with arguments as to why the movie name is Pirates of the Silicon Valley.

Because the technology, in Silicon Valley was the most developed, there was a lot of money in that area, the richest and most famous computer companies were there and that was the place were people stole other person's idea and that's why they were pirates. But of corse we need to go back in time just to refresh our memory with the biginning of the Silicon Valley. The valley started with a group of brilliant guys that persuades to make a cirtcuit in a silicon chip. Most people wew eseptic about this, because they did not think it was going to be a great success. The truth is that Silicon Valley strated from being and unkown paceful area in the west to now a days one of the most important places for the computter industry.

This chip was very innovative for its time and its inventor, Robert Noyse really persuded on putting this unusual product in the market. These chips was going to make computers more efficient less expensive.Investors from New York really trusted this envention and that is why it was such a big massive success. At the beging the production of the chip was about $5, but as it went more popular, the price went down and then it was produced for less that $1. This big success made the intergreted circuit in a silicon chip very reliable and soon the computer industry started growing at massive steps.

Silicon chips were the basic thing that made computers get better and its the basic foundament for new computers. Soon young innovative minds came to the market with brilliant ideas, but certainly they did not do everything

silicon valley is the city of the technology, whe robert noyce started the computer so all the technology have been developed there for many years.and the name of pirates of silicon valley is because steve jobs and bill gates have been fighting for the success of their company so the have been stealing ideas and that´s what they have made the pirates. it is a constant fighting for the advance of their computers.
