| - The Principal Office is Mainframe’s central operating center. The building houses the System Operating Core, the Core Control Chamber, the cities Central Archives, and latter the War Room. Phong runs the city from within the Principal Office and is the only permanent resident of the building. The Principal Office also manages all system upgrades. Mainframe cannot survive without the Principal Office. At the top of the Principal Office is the Sub-Sphere. It is the main access to the Core Control Chamber and contains the Portal Generator inside it. The Sphere is easily replaced if destroyed. (Bad Bob) Phong has a spacious Office inside the Principal Office where he can counsel others, dispense information, and administrate the city. (Nullzilla) When people have a simple problem, Phong will see them at his podium in the Entrance Hall. Only if it is a larger problem does anyone come further into the Principal Office than the Entrance Hall. (The TIFF) The Principal Office also houses the Mainframe Clock Speed Room. It is located near the cities Read-Only Room, just off the Entrance Hall. (Enzo the Smart) The Principal Office has been attacked several times in its history. Its attackers have included Megabyte, Hexadecimal, the Medusa Bug, the Web, Daemon, and the Mainframe rebellion. Game Cubes will not land on the Principal Office because it houses the Core Energy, Since Mainframe would be deleted if the Principal Office were nullified. However, if the energy is removed from the building, an incoming Game will be very unstable. This happened once, during an attack by Megabyte. The energy had been removed and the incoming Game distorted and was attracted to the energy, landing halfway on the Principal Office. (Bad Bob) By issuing the command 'Pinnacle Windows' massive VidWindows appear around the Principal Office. These windows are used by Phong to make system wide announcements, such as preparation for power downs during upgrades, or to warn the city about dangers that have entered the system. (Infected) The buildings security is handled by the CPU defense force lead by the CPU General. They maintain a large stock of weapons in the Mainframe Armory in the Principal Office. The Principal Office is also protected by several heavy anti-aircraft guns and the CPU defense force. The building also has a strong shield to protect it, which are effective at stopping most weapons and viruses from gaining access. However, even the Principal Office's defenses are no match for super viruses, or viral bugs like the Medusa. Long after Bob first arrived in Mainframe a Web Creature appeared in the system. It formed a Web Portal to open over Mainframe. The following Web War devastated Mainframe. The Principal Office was protected by powerful Anti-Aircraft Guns during the battle. Mainframe was forced to form an alliance with Megabyte and Hexadecimal to fight the Web. Megabyte would build the Hardware needed to close the portal, Phong would provide the software from the Archives to run it, and Hexadecimal would power the device. Just before they closed the portal Megabyte forced Bob into a missile and shot him into the Web. Once the portal was closed Megabyte ordered the ABC's to blow the CPU's out of the sky and Hexadecimal prepared to fire the hardware at the Principal Office. (Web World Wars)
