Amiga stores in DC area
6 messages in this thread
About 1 1/2 weeks ago I went to the computer store that I frequent from time to
time–I hadn't been there in quite a while. Well, it's closed it's doors.
Does anyone out there know what stores in the Washington, DC area sell Amiga
software/hardware?

That depends partially on your concept of the DC area….
If you live in Laurel, say, then Arundel Computers in Glen Burnie is
reasonably close, and the ONLY real Amiga store in the Baltimore area.
If you live in Alexandria, then that northern edge of Anne Arundel County
isn't really very close.
What store closed? I seem to vaguely recall there was one in the Rockville
area, but cannot remember details.

Jim,
There are (were?) two stores in Rockville, "Buried Treasure" on Randolph
Road and "Software Advantage" on Wisconsin Ave. I havent been to either
in a long time, so I cant say if they are open. I know they had odd
hours. Also, I got the feeling that they werent too happy about the state
of affairs in the Amiga market… well, who is?

My 1994 yellow pages list Buried Treasure, Inc. in Rockville as an Amiga
dealer. Maybe John Chang know of others, as Scala is headquartered in
Northern Virginia.

Which computer store are you referring to?
The new 1994 Northern Virgnia yellow pages has Buried Treasure in
Rockville, MD, Virginia Micro Computer Services in Woodbridge, VA and
Amiga on Consignment in Chantilly, VA as Amiga dealers.

Jeff–
As far as I know, Burried Treasure is still open. The one that closed was
Discovery (I live in Northern VA). Actually, it may be closer to go to Burried
Treasure than to the store in Woodbridge, given how bad the traffic is in
northern VA. I guess it's going to be mail order for me!
