I actually started out working for Video Max back in 1973 and then with Videomagnetics in 1980 so I had the pleasure of working in both buildings. I still have the original business plans for Videomagnetics Inc from 1975. I wonder how many people knew that the founder of Videomagnetics had also started Video Max but lost controlling interest to CMX and was pushed out after they merged.</font></div><div> </div><div><font size="2" face="Arial">Tony</font></div><div><font size="2" face="Arial">Videomagnetics Inc</font> </div><div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font> </div><div>----- Original Message -----</div><blockquote style="border-left-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); border-left-width: 2px; border-left-style: solid; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 0px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 0px; "><div style="font: normal normal normal 10pt/normal arial; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: rgb(228, 228, 228); background-position: initial initial; "><b>From:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="ted@quadvideotapegroup.com" href="mailto:ted@quadvideotapegroup.com">Ted Langdell</a></div><div style="font: normal normal normal 10pt/normal arial; "><b>To:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a title="quadlist@quadvideotapegroup.com" href="mailto:quadlist@quadvideotapegroup.com">Quad List</a></div><div style="font: normal normal normal 10pt/normal arial; "><b>Sent:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Friday, May 07, 2010 7:59 PM</div><div style="font: normal normal normal 10pt/normal arial; "><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Re: [QuadList] vintage head refurb forms</div><div><br></div><div>Note the proximity of VideoMax to VideoMagnetics on San Lazaro in Sunnyvale.</div><div><br></div><div>VideoMax is at 154... and Tony's operation, VideoMagnetics is across the street at 155.</div><div><br></div><div>Here's where they were...</div><div><br></div><div style="font-size: 11px; "><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=155+San+Lazaro+Avenue,+Sunnyvale,+CA&sll=37.376091,-122.012508&sspn=0.010487,0.017252&g=155+San+Lazaro+Avenue,+Sunnyvale,+CA&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=155+San+Lazaro+Ave,+Sunnyvale,+Santa+Clara,+California+94086&ll=37.375868,-122.012237&spn=0.000655,0.001078&t=h&z=20&layer=c&cbll=37.375963,-122.012213&panoid=GPwe_QIJw1gyOj3XiJVMQA&cbp=12,276.26,,0,4.32">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=155+San+Lazaro+Avenue,+Sunnyvale,+CA&sll=37.376091,-122.012508&sspn=0.010487,0.017252&g=155+San+Lazaro+Avenue,+Sunnyvale,+CA&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=155+San+Lazaro+Ave,+Sunnyvale,+Santa+Clara,+California+94086&ll=37.375868,-122.012237&spn=0.000655,0.001078&t=h&z=20&layer=c&cbll=37.375963,-122.012213&panoid=GPwe_QIJw1gyOj3XiJVMQA&cbp=12,276.26,,0,4.32</a></div><div><br></div><div>If you zoom in and click on the white stripe in the street, you can use Street View to see what they look like today.</div><div><br></div><div><div>Tony Korte moved VideoMagnetics to Colorado Springs.
