Today I am closing an 8-year chapter

Apple Mac Pro
Today is a very special day, so allow me not to post a recipe (once again).
On the 1st of August 2000 I joined Philips Research ... today is my last day at NXP Semiconductors, which was previously known as Philips Semiconductors. Almost 8 years I have been working in Eindhoven ... surrounded by the same (but changing) buildings. And surely, I am much less of a scientist I was then. 

Today I am closing this chapter. Another one will be opened soon (and not only professionally) ... still, it is strange to do a change which implies not seeing the same people, place, city, etc etc.

So allow me a moment of though about it.

In the meantime, let me know what you think this photo is about. Of course, ex-colleagues, please say nothing.

I think its a blueprint of a Covenant building for playing cooperative in Halo-4 on the Xbox :-P
Even if I am wrong, we should still play Halo 1-2 soon again anyway.

8 anni sono molti...negli utlimi 8 anni ci sono stati molti cambiamenti nella mia vita pero' ti posso assicurare che nuovi stimoli e la voglia di rigenerarsi, di mettersi in gioco non guasta anzi... In bocca al lupo per il tuo prossimo "futuro" :)

Grazie grazie!
La foto e' l'interno di quelle scatoline nere che sono dentro ad apparecchi elettronici (noti come Circuiti Integrati) ;-).

Ciao/Groetje/Seeya!
