If you’re willing to rent a car for the day and drive out
a few hours to Redmond, Washington, you’ll be pleasantly surprised
to wander through a part of the empire built by Seattle native Bill
Gates. The Microsoft Visitor Center allows you and the kids to explore
the extraordinary exhibits that focus around software and computers.
There are spotlight exhibits on everything from new hi-tech mobile
devices to the very first personal computer to the most popular
videogames ever played on the computer. You can even test out some
of the latest of Microsoft’s offerings and meet some of the
employees on staff. And for those looking to be educated about what
exactly software is and how it works, you won’t be disappointed.
There’s also a 30-foot timeline that takes you through Microsoft’s
30-year history.
