Update Sinking, rats ship out
*UPDATE - Sheesh, yet another's gorn, it says here.
OH DEAR. To lose one senior dude could be seen as a misfortune. To lose four could possibly be seen as carelessness.
According to VR-Zone, AMD has just waved a tearful goodbye to Vijay Sharma, Director of the Product Marketing Graphics Products Group. Exactly whom shed the tears remains a mystery.
The official reason for the parting of the ways is the old chestnut of his wanting to pursue new challenges. Precisely what could be more challenging than flogging AMD chips remains an enigma wrapped in a riddle with a side order of incredulity.
As late as last week, Sharma had attended an AMD graphics partner conference in Thailand, so his departure would appear to be somewhat precipitous. Other senior AMD dudes who have cleared off recently include Henri Richard, Rick Hegberg and Dave Orton.
A bit more over here. µ
