That's the "boiler room", where Sweaty cuts all his nefarious "deals".
Hence the constant sweat on his chubby brow - he's a busy little beaver.
And I don't think I need worry much about picking up towels; Sweaty sold
all the MS towels on eBay three years ago, along with the soda machines,
in the now infamous "(Maybe) Going Out of Business Sale" of 2004;
presumably in anticipation of all the Billion$ they were about to lose
on Vista, the eXb0rks, the ZZZzzzune (now with NotSoSure® technology),
(Un)Live Services, and getting brutally humiliated and porked by Google.
