I worked on the SGI campus as a consultant/vendor to them in 1999/2000 during the dot.com boom. I really wanted one of those 1600SW flat screens (everything was CRT back then), but they weren't really in use at the time.

One of the neatest things is that they let us (Trilogy/pcOrder) put together a sand volleyball team to compete in their company intramurals.

Their cafeteria was also top notch.

That cafeteria went on to be known as "Charlie's" at Google and was the main HQ cafeteria (serving great food, and then later, extremely meh food). TGIF was also held there. If there ever was a place that was "Google central", that was it.

>"Charlie's" , and its chef, Charlie, are mentioned in the book called The Google Story:
