Story Time

🥚💾 Do you remember Egghead Software?

In the 1980s and early 1990s, it was the go-to place to buy computer software in the United States. Before downloads existed, you had to go to a store to get software, and Egghead made that experience friendly, fun, and surprisingly affordable. Founded in 1984 by Victor Alhadeff in Bellevue, WA, Egghead offered deep discounts (20 to 40%!), in-store demonstrations, and a friendly mascot named Professor Egghead. Their goal? To make software shopping as easy as buying shoes at Nordstrom (which had actually been Alhadeff's old job).

🖥️ The stores were stocked with titles, over 1,000 per location, and the staff really knew how to explain the software. By the late 1980s, they had over 200 stores and were making over $300 million a year. Customers loved them, companies like Boeing bought from them, and even Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen was an early investor.

But then the tech world changed. Big box stores (like Best Buy), bundled software, and the rise of online shopping made it harder for Egghead to stand out. They tried superstores, tried hardware. Eventually, they closed all their brick-and-mortar stores in 1998 and went completely online with Egghead.com.

💻 The site enjoyed a brief moment of glory during the dot-com boom, but a security breach and the crash of 2001 spelled its end. That December, Amazon acquired what remained.

The rise and fall of Egghead is a classic story: a bold idea, a fun brand, massive success… and then, the inability to adapt to a rapidly changing world. However, for a while, they made buying software really cool, and that's no joke. 😉
