Old Amiga office in Los Gatos
I was in the area and I thought I'd visit
According to google the address is Commodore-Amiga Incorporated 983 University Ave. Building #D Los Gatos, California, 95030 The building still appears to be there. https://www.dropbox.com/s/tv8snqcsbaehhj4/01.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ibm9fsy8bvrogfx/02.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/d5mqxgnd03cg9h5/03.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/avsdut8u1sd9hub/04.jpg?dl=0 Last edited by frank_b; 05 October 2017 at 16:43.

Amiga Inc was always in Los Gatos, I think they had two separate offices there. After Commodore bought them, there was some pressure for the guys to move to the east coast, but I guess not many of them wanted to go, so they slowly quit one by one.

No, they were first situated on Scott Blvd, in Santa Clara... then they moved a few miles away to Los Gatos, in larger facilities, after the buy out by Commodore.

The address was different from one of the US Amiga boxes I saw. Hopefully it was correct

... but after the Los Gatos closure, they were moved to West Chester, PA (one of the reasons for some engineers to quit) Last edited by sodapop; 25 February 2019 at 20:54. |

Thanks, even if it's just a building.. It's fun having these "nerd" pilgrimages.
