If I recall correctly this was ground level of building 115, now renamed Studio G. Someone from Mac BU cruising the halls on a Razor scooter while wearing a propellor beanie once gave me a peek in that lab.

In Redmond?

I seem to remember MacBU was in San Jose, maybe that was before this post? Or were things split between the locations?

Yes, Redmond. The lab in the post looks like Redmond but I'm not sure where else Mac BU was, as a Mac user I thought it was cool to see the lab but it wasn't related at all to my work.

I started working in MacBU about 3 years after the article. It was split between the two locations when I joined. (Outlook for Mac and PowerPoint were both in California.) These photos look like Building 115 to me, though I didn't go into this particular lab often. After this, the team moved to Building 31 and later Building 35, if I remember correctly.

One thing that was interesting about MacBU was that it was in a completely separate division from the rest of Office (i.e. Windows Office). That gave the team a really cool outsider vibe and the team had a really nice close-knit culture.

And now moved to the new Building 4
