Eddie Bauer campus goes to Microsoft
Todd Bishop of the Seattle PI writes in his Microsoft blog that the Eddie Bauer campus has gone to Microsoft for $38 million in Spiegel's bankruptcy proceedings.
During my brief tour of duty with Spiegel/Eddie Bauer, I worked in the building across the street from the one pictured on the first floor. Microsoft occupied the top three floors. It gave me some serious street cred to be doing Notes development in the same building as Microsoft. Somehow, I think it's a little different for Gary.
Those pictures brought back lots of good memories of being introduced to the Northwest's winter drizzle, Christmas in downtown Seattle, and coffee shops on every block. This is a very cool place to live (but don't tell anyone.)
