Yeah, that's our new nifty integration lab where outside customers can bring their equipment to install it in our "virtual casino" to test for compatibility with the new back-end server system we're making.
Basically, we're still spending texas-money on server-based gaming, because we already stacked all our eggs in that basket. Lucky for me, that's what I'm working on. Unlucky for me, IGT really needs lots of new and fun slot machines if it wants to dig itself out of the slump, not a fancy new server... which means if/when they figure that out, I'm in real trouble.
