- davepeck 16y ago+1 Powell's has a separate science and technology bookstore. Even if you don't want to buy a book, it's worth visiting this separate building to see the quite small (but entertaining) collection of vintage computers and manuals.
- bayareaguy 16y agoPowell's has a great technical bookstore a block away from their main store. Budget plenty of time to take it all in. If the weather permits I would recommend riding a bike and taking public transportation to get around. Portland is much better than the bay area in this respect. If you are into postgres be sure and say hi to the folks at Rentrak if you can. They have some great query / analytics technology built on it. There are some fabulous farmer's markets there too.
- rgrieselhuber 16y agoThanks! Rentrak looks like a cool company - I'll try to get in touch.
