On Wednesday, March 20th, a group of students went to visit Microsoft, the worldwide pioneer of PC software development, founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen. In the beginning, the students were brought to the reception area where two students experienced the rock-climbing and bowling games on the older version of the X-box. Then, the guide led the students on a tour around the Microsoft workplace, visiting the basketball court, tennis court, soccer field, and a gym that’s open until 10:00 o’clock p.m. Other than the entertainment facilities, Microsoft is surrounded by their highly impressive technological innovations.
