Thanks. my buddy from that story is an EVP today at blizzard..

Gaming and 3D and Architecture formed my career... I was a design eng for Lucas Film's Presidio, and I worked with Frank Gehry on MPKW (FBs HQ) and designed shit for Namco.

A confluence of all three.

Ha! I love that Presidio campus, it’s nicely integrated with the environment.

The imagination for the campus was nuts. I put in for a lot more...

The idea was to avoid Big Rock, such that we didnt have a flooded DC... as the initial design req was to avoid the DC flooding...

But what ended up happening was that the DC was raided and all the DC 10G switches were stolen ($40 million) and the design had to be redone...

But Raliegh went on to be the head of Goog networking
