adminBoth a good day and a sad day as an Intel employee.
There is some excellent press about Paul’s presentation at the Intel Developer Forum taking place in San Francisco. Also some pictures and other info. Paul announced that we’ll be shipping quad core processors in November. And a large part of an an AMD’s law suit (du jour) against Intel was dismissed by a federal judge. Paul showed off some Teraflop processors. Overall a good news day.
The more I see Paul out doing these events, the more I like him. He seems to be a charismatic guy and is good with the press, which to me is as important as having the ability to run the company. Will we see Paul sitting across the table from Larry King anytime soon?
It was a sad day at Intel as I heard about some cuts starting to take place. This will be happening over the next week or so, and as I’ve said before, it’s hard on everyone. It’s worst for the people who are let go, but also bad for the people who have to tell them they’re going, and for the rest of us watching friends leave. Chins up, guys.
A couple of additional housekeeping notes: I’m traveling and am still working on some other posts. I’ve got some e-mail from several readers that I won’t be able to return until later this week. Thanks for your patience.
