The first office of Microsoft was located at 819 Two Park Central Tower inAlbuquerque and the business cards mentions the landline number of both the founders. Interestingly, they shared the phone number-- (505)256-3600.During the initial days, Microsoft’s logo looked very different from what it is now.
In 2012, Microsoft changed its logo for the first time in 25 years. The new logo took inspiration from the Windows operating system. When compared to the previous emblem, which only had the name of the company, this new logo has 'Microsoft' written in Segoe font on the right and square with four tiles, reminiscent of the Metro UI, on the left. This change in the logo after such a long time focused on providing a consistent user experience across all devices.
