JOHN : OH, IT WAS NASTY MAN, LONG QUEUE. BILL GATES WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF ME AND THEY PLAYED WITH HIM LIKE ANYTHING, THATS WHY IT GOT DELAYED, I WENT THERE AT 2 AM ITSELF AND WAITED AND RETURNED BY 4 PM. ALEX : REALLY?

WHAT ABT IN CHENNAI, MUMBAI, BANGALORE ? JOHN : NO IDEA, BUT IT IS LESS THAN WHAT WE HAVE IN BANGALORE. IT IS LIKE THE WORLD HEADQUARTERS OF SOFTWARE.
