Microsoft alumni play one last game of hallway putt-putt before demolition


REDMOND, Washington: Microsoft's Building 2 – one of the first to be built on the company's sprawling Redmond campus – was turned into a shrine to nostalgia on Nov 10. Each office down a long hallway of the X-shaped building represented a different memory. 

A completely tin-foiled room commemorated a workplace prank that once hit someone who took a long vacation. One room featured the products Microsoft has done away with, including Zune music players and children's toys. Another had a whiteboard packed full of handwritten alumni memories of Lake Bill, the pond in the centre of Microsoft's original set of buildings on its campus, and named for the company's founder.
