For those in the bay area, Micro Center is opening a branch in Santa Clara.

Well, maybe. It's delayed months at this point.



Loyal customer of the Detroit area Micro Center. Thought I was the furthest customer that day when I bought my last laptop there coming ninety miles. Salesman said he's sold two machines that day to customers from Grand Rapids and one to someone from Muskegon! That Muskegon customer had travelled nearly 400 miles roundtrip to buy a laptop. I'm fairly technical and yet I haven't ever found a question my salesman couldn't answer.


Fascinating, I drove by it and thought "Oh look, they forgot to take down the sign when the store closed." It will be interesting to see how they do. For computer stuff, Central Computers has been the 'go to' store for a while. Central also has a store on Steven's Creek (a bit further down toward San Jose).


When the hell are we going to get an Austin or San Antonio Microcenter?


According this Reddit thread, it's going to be in the same place as Frys:

Thought why would they open one so close to another, until I just found out the 3255 Mission College Blvd one was closed.


Yep. Glad they're coming back.


That link you posted there says 2025! Wow that makes me excited. Big fan of microcenter.


Nice, and in that same plaza is Harbor Freight.


That sounds like a pretty dangerous combination for my wallet.


I read a rumor that they’re aiming for May now
