I bet, and no disrespect...but I bet if he wasn't involved with AMD, but maybe some other company, very few of you would have even commented.

He left in the 70s people; little of what he did while with AMD has carried on to this day. It's a completely different company.

I love how association determines one's value...

co-founder. he helped *MAKE* AMD.

Some people are too dense to realize that.. :shadedshu

If you can't post in a respectful manner, just don't do it. Thread stays on topic with respectful and civilized conversation or more infractions will be handed out.:shadedshu

SimFreak47 · Oct 18, 2008

Sorry, had to.

Anyway, back on topic. Although he left a while ago, he still founded it, so he should still be accredited for it, and not be shat on about it!

No need to turn this into a flame-fest. Those should only be done at BBQ's, and gay bars! :toast:

He might of left in the 70`s (when they made intel chips )he was probably still getting a nice paycheck.

RIP , world lost genius man

Its a shame. He helped pave the way to real competition in the market. Ill tell ya guys something. If I were him and knew death was coming I would just piss people off and have a "Powered by AMD" sticker put on the side of my casket and have the whole thing painted green!
