West Cost VC's are More Desirable

Cambridge-based Y Combinator held it's demo day in Boston, unveiling 19 startup to VCs and investors. Although most of the presentations were from early stage one, or two, person companies, prominent VCs from around the country came to Boston for the event.
Unfortunately, it sounds like Boston VCs are not supporting early stage companies. Scott Kirsner blogged after the event that "several of the companies are planning to relocate to Silicon Valley because the VCs are more aggressive and the partnership opportunities are better." While Don Dodge calls for Boston VC to "Step up and make the investments."
