gst, japan's crisis rocked hawaii tourism for a while. wrt to high tech, hawaii can attract certain niches. i can see a headquarters located there if an owner really likes hawaii. of course, regional offices w/b located on the mainland. freelance web designers, etc. could easily work on hawaii, too, but they would need a great reputation since it would be hard to sell face to face. anyone who focused on providing hawaiian only services could live in hawaii.

it won't overtake the bay area anytime soon, however, it doesn't need to. hawaii just wants to attract some more good tech businesses.

>Peregrine's results are a stark contrast to other companies in the software sector -- such as i2 Technologies Inc, (NasdaqNM:ITWO - news), Commerce One Inc. (NasdaqNM:CMRC - news) and Ariba Inc. (NasdaqNM:ARBA - news) -- the majority of which are posting results way below Wall Street's original estimates as they continue to battle the economic slowdown and sharp decrease in customer spending levels.
