So today I was at the IBM labs in Hursley. Its an amazing place, not only just from the amazing views and grounds, but also from the fact its not your average IBM office.
For a start its huge.. and I mean huge.. the mix of old Hursley House, and the new buildings cover was seems like a mass expanse..
I had a meeting in the main old house part of the site, and this is the view from the window, down over the gardens with the sunken gardens just out of sight.
Unfortuantly I didnt get time to see, or even find the museum, I guess that will be the task for next time I’m down there.
Its quite humbling walking round the corridors of the buildings. The walls are covered with pictures of the employees, and their inventions, Master Inventor seems to be the most popular, and you realise just how much stuff IBM have come up with over the years, and its strange the mix of the historic Hursley House, the grounds, and the leading edge technology of IBM..
Definately want to go back there and have a proper poke around what I think is one of the more relaxing parts of IBM..
