Everybody Huang Chung Tonight...

He's probably on to something. I'm sure that guy knows something about processor design. And like the Inq enjoys pointing out, x86 is a terrible design. He's just reiterating that with, granted, more emotion.

I'm looking forward to seeing this competition heat up. If Intel can come up with a decent discrete part or maybe, finally, a decent integrated part, it's going to hurt nVidia.

I see the light, for them, being in the mobile -read: phone- market. That's where the money will be made.

nvidia is in a tough spot

They were locked out of next gen server platform by both Intel and AMD. Their bread-butter business is under threat.

If they jump the gun and opened up their GPU, and Larrabee is a dud, they'll look stupid. If they waited, and Larrabee isn't a dud, it'd be too late to do anything - no one would even bother to look at their chips even if they begged.

Best strategy: trash talking intel and pray.

That's a bit rich...

"That's a monopolistic feeling, right? "

Coming from the nVidia boss, considering the ruthless and unconcerned (even autistic) attitude nVidia evinced towards customers regarding driver and legacy support in the past * that seems like blatant hypocrisy.

* (Which put me off their nForce chipsets for life.) (I hear their graphics drivers arent much cop either.)

Unless I misunderstood it sounds very much like he is blaming Intel for obstructing nVidias plan for world domination.

Maybe its time for him to reflect on the teachings of the light of Asia. According to karmic philosphy, the pain he feels is a reflection of his own character, so the pain he finds when seeing Intel dominant is the pain he would inflict if he was dominant himself.

That it apparently drives him crazy instructs us that if he did dominate the market, he would drive all of us crazy instead. Which, crazy though it may sound, I consider quite likely given my previous experience of nVidia customer support.

So do tell JHH I know which side my bread is buttered thankyou very much.

Maybe he should just stop whinging and do something useful instead.
