Early into my MIT experience, I was invited to a housewarming party plus a celebration of theone billionith second birthday for Unix. This refers to the 2^32 seconds since Unix time started sometime in January 1970.If that sounds a little geeky, especially the nice cake, well, its just a good excuse for a party!A PowerMac G3 computer was connected to a TV and had remote-control support to play iTunes, plus do the countdown.
