My dad lived in Seattle in the late 60s/early 70s, back then same problems, just instead of tech it was mostly Boeing (who he worked for before the big "will the last person to leave seattle turn out the lights" bust).

It was actually probably never cool, even in the 90s. Almost Live's 1992 skit called "Studs from Microsoft" [1] should tell you about everything you need to know.
