Funny that Plug and Play Tech Center was not mentioned. That's the setting where Saeed Amidi made those investments and gave real estate to those early companies mentioned. This was around pre-YC but never quite adapted to what entrepreneurs really needed: rock solid mentorship as opposed to just real estate.

Did it close? The building it was in seems to have removed the marquis.

It is still there...http://www.plugandplaytechcenter.com/startups/office-space

I was at Planet Granite next door to there yesterday and there is definitely still a sign up.

Did Nozad and the Amidis make more money from the carpet business or from Plug and Play? Even if not, it's a pretty big thing to be left out.
