MK is a great place to shop, but don't expect high quality.
If you want cheap computer parts and crafts and what not...go to Sham Shui Po.
Factory outlets are in Cheung Sha Wan
For higher end world wide brands I'd go to HK Island.
Touristy Urban shopping and eating i say hit up Tsim Sha Tsui
Clubbing or pubbing go to Lan Gwai Fong (Friday evenings its packed with yummy european and aussie business men)
Kowloon and the new territories have a lot of historical infulstructure.
But ya HK is broken down into 3 main parts. New Territories (sort of like the fraser valley, tri-city area)
You got your Kowloon area (mainly residential and sort of the middle class) And Tsim Sha Tsui and what not are sort of the Vancouver/Downtown area
You have HK Island where its the richer folk and business district (equivalent to downtownish area.)
