Only ‘hardcore’ tweeps get espresso

At first glance I thought I was looking at an engine block, but no. This chrome La Marzocco Strada 3EE Espresso Machine looks like it weighs a ton and probably costs even more. Indeed, such an item goes for upwards of $28,000. It’s emblematic of the amenities enjoyed among the major Silicon Valley tech enterprises, and a sad thing to see going away, but the HGP auction was selling four other automatic espresso machines. Though none were as top of the line as this bad boy.
