Hard to say, because the number of deals with Boston investors has always been so small as to be statistically insignificant. Boston VCs may actually be more interested in YC alumni lately, but I think that's because they only recently discovered YC. With angels it's even harder to tell, because the Boston angel community is even weaker than the VCs. If I recall correctly, only one YC alum has been talking to a Boston angel lately, and he backed out of the deal in a pretty lame way. But with only one data point it's hard to say whether it's Boston, or the economy, or just that guy.
