I saw this deck a while ago, here, and I think my fave card was "the virus" (well, at least one w/ a cockroack). I've forgotten what it equals in the Majors though..... lol
cool deck, I wouldn't wanna buy it though

Yeah ... it's a funny idea -- very cute cards!
I'm not too sure if I would really want to buy it either. For a technology-based deck, I would like the artwork to be a little more ... well ... technological! hehe! More like the Rohrig -- know what I mean?

My favorite was the firewall. It's harder to make sense of, though, as the whole thing is very work based/computer business based. I thought about getting it for my brother (he works as a computer chip designer at IBM) but he would have a hard time reading it as a total beginner.
The deck sells really well from what I hear.

Kaz- How is the card stock? Is it fairly well put together?

Potential buyers, take note: the Silicon Valley Tarot has 8, rather than 10, pip cards (although all the majors and court cards are all present, in their "technologically-equivalent" form). The LWB doesn't explain this, but I had always assumed it was because 8 is a digitially-significant number (a perfect power of two, eight bits in a byte, etc.).

P.S. -- the cardstock is of average massmarket quality.
