Old Amiga office in Los Gatos

frank_b · 05 October 2017, 16:42

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.

When were they located in here?

frank_b · 05 October 2017, 18:59

No idea. Must have been before they moved out to Pennsylvania.

Nice!

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.

I stand corrected. :-)

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

The current building look very clean. Can be bought back to restart the history

Yeah, it was the right one in Los Gatos

... but after the Los Gatos closure, they were moved to West Chester, PA (one of the reasons for some engineers to quit)

This is the building in Scott Boulevard. It's building 7. I tracked it down on Google Maps a few months ago. I was very bored. lol. p

Looks like a McDonalds in the UK.

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

I wonder if any secrets lie above the ceiling tiles.

Or buried in the yard/parking lot?
