Amiga Los Gatos Office
I went for a walk around Vasona park with a good friend the other day, we talked about Amiga and other fond tech from back in the day. Afterwards I had to drive by the old office and thought some other fans might like to see where the magic happened in the early days.

Love that area. My commute takes me past the Amiga offices in Sunnyvale. I've driven by many times, but never took the time to find the actual building.

A few years ago we moved to the SF bay area and the first apartment and office were both in Sunnyvale, we were looking to move from a shared office to a private, and I saw that the little office right across the road from my window had a sign up. So I googled that and found it was originally registered to a company called 'Hi-Torro', unbelievable that I'd end up moving all this way and looking in to the windows of the place Jay and the team set out to change the world without knowing it. A couple of years after that we moved to Los Gatos and when looking for offices here, found that one we were looking at was in the same complex as the Amiga office that they moved to when they got the check from Commodore, right next door to my local park. Of course there's tons of special 'tech-mecca' places out here in Silicon Valley, but I find these pretty special to be around, there's a memory haunting these places. |
