I disagree. There's a third kind of of person - the one that uses 'whom' incorrectly in order to sound smart. I hate that guy.
You of course meant to say "the one who uses," right?

Cool.  I could probably give you a couple-three hours - I'm sure if I told my boss I was trying to recruit you she'd be OK with me taking an extended break.  :)

Aight, cool, maybe we can meet up then.  I'm booked to visit the area towards the end of the month (April 25 - 28), but I'm unsure of whether I'll like the area... I want to get a feel for the area before focusing on applying to jobs there.

KK.  I probably won't be able to show you around the Seattle area proper just yet... I don't know it very well!  I'll say Redmond is a very sleepy area.  Bellevue looks semi-urban though, and it's just across the way.  We'll see! :)

BTW, I'm glad to see that you'll be here during some week days.  You'll have to come by and visit me during work.

MS gave me a Lenovo X220 convertible tablet.  The thing is fully decked out - I think full retail it would cost $2800 or so - but running Windows 8 on it is suh-weeeeeeeeeet.

I just saw that this was a topic about tablets and had to hijack it.
How does the swivel hinge feel? Weak? I worried about that when Toshiba came out with its swivel product back in...06?

I haven't ever had a problem with a swivel hinge.  I had one on a Gateway tablet I had back in 07-09, too.

So wait, Mynd, are you at MS' offices in Seattle/Redmond or somewhere in California?

Not to hijack a question meant for him, but he's definitely in Seattle.

Yep!  I'm living on the east side in Redmond.

I met Skywing.  Also, supposedly iago is going to be in Seattle soon.
Finances permitting.

If I could score a ticket/invite/whatever they have to Blue Hat, it'll be much more likely (I can justify it as a work expense :) )
I'll mention that to Skywing.

I really, REALLY expected it to be a picture of someone's bottom.

For those of you who don't already know because of the secret message boards that don't exist for members only....  I'm going to be joining Microsoft on April 2nd!

I'll be working on the Chakra Runtime team - that's Microsoft's JavaScript engine - as a Program Manager.  Pretty excited!
