These past weeks have been a truly amazing experience. I've learned things that I only thought that I would be able to learn from either college or experience. Things like the different types of RAID, making CAT5E Network cable, and even making some basic software programs using C#. I have also learned how to properly install an Operating System, which will come in handy when I need to switch to Windows 7!
Speaking of Windows 7, Microsoft has brought it to the RTM stage. RTM stands for Released to Manufacturing. This means that Windows 7 is officially done, and is being boxed to be released to the general public on October 22, 2009. Luckily enough for me, and all the others out there that have a MSDN subscription, we are able to download and install Windows 7 now! In my opinion, it seems to be a bit faster, and the Aero design looks much nicer. Windows 7 has the same kernel as Windows Vista, and one can tell.
But, besides learning all of the technical stuff, I have also learned some things that I can use in "real life". They showed me how easy it is to make brownies, and how to make a delicious turkey dinner!
I have also been introduced with Indian food, and sushi. I was pretty nervous about eating Indian food, but it was really good. I really hope there is an Indian place somewhere in NY! I've heard that sushi is pretty good, and I didn't think that it was that bad, but I will probably only have it on a really special occasion.
Well, I can't wait to get back home to New York, hopefully it will be nice and cold!
