Arg... why Vegas? I would start that somewhere in the philippins/thailand/indonesia...

Ok.

Good food. Great weather. Everything is cheap.

I don't see the point moving SF to the middle of the desert really.

As one of many developers here in south Asia, we agree with you :)

The problem there is infrastructure outside of big cities like Manila. You want your employees to be able to enjoy the good parts of places like the Philippines out in the provinces, not stuck in smog-choked EDSA traffic.
