From the context, I think the point was about the whole "work"station, not just the computer. It sounds like intel has cubicles, while google has smaller desks with no dividers.

I was careless with my wording. By workstation, I was emphasizing the station portion.

As an example, my current cube at Intel has walls all around (albeit short, but some buildings have walls taller than most people), 2 file storage cabinets with a fair number of drawers, a decent sized desk (enough for 2 people, not that we'd do that). Correspondingly, the cube is enough for 2 people. Also, I have a whiteboard.

That’s not the normal work station at google. Only the chome, Linux, and maybe android team gets it since they need more cpu and memory to compile their projects.

Oh, I just have to move A LOT of protobufs.

Ok?

Also, this is very ungoogly on your part. Flaunting some superficial thing like this is dumb. I’m hope you aren’t leak other more important pieces of info just to win internet arguments.
