Right now it’s snowing like crazy at our super secret headquarters, and it has been snowing like crazy for the past couple of days. Everything is covered in beautiful white snow. Last night I took a walk in the snow just to enjoy the falling snowflakes and hear the snow squeak under my boots.
It is a lucky coincidence that while it’s snowing like crazy over here, Redmond-based software giant Microsoft has rolled out a new snowy theme for Windows 7. After releasing the Arctic theme, Microsoft has now released the Antarctic theme.
