A striking
yellow pyramid on the corner of ShiaMen and FuJian streets, not
far from the Cultural Center, this new branch of GameAll offers
something which, if not unique, is certainly rare: high-speed Internet
access with abundant fresh air. Dozens of computer stations are
set around the pyramid. Tarpaulins overhead and foliage to the sides
block bright sunlight and cold draughts, but otherwise surfers are
exposed to the elements. Not quite the Great Outdoors, but for those
who avoid Internet cafes because of the smoky and/or stale air,
a welcome innovation. Drinks cost around NT$30, meals about NT$70.
