A brand new Computer
My computer at work is replaced to a new one.
Running Web applications is a heavy task to computers. Until yesterday, I had to wait frequently to do my task. Now, our Web application is running as if it is a small and old program. I found that the computer is more powerful than the CEO’s one. I'm sorry. However, the most distinctive feature is not its power, but its appearance. It has a dark black front panel and a transparent side cover. Inside the cover is a fan illuminated in several colors. It is especially beautiful in dark. The computer must be designed to fit to the modern atmosphere of the office.
After work, I went to see a baseball game with T. He happened to get free tickets for the game of San Francisco giants. The ticket included a cushion, a cap, and a $10 pre-paid eating ticket. Silicon Valley companies are really generous. We went to the stadium by walk. The stadium was a comfortable place with the view of bay bridge, city center, and the bay. The game was also exciting. We saw more than four homeruns. The score between two teams was very close. People shouted, clapped, and booed all the time. And I could understand what was happening in the game thanks to T. He explained to me during the game.
