Can't be for cost cutting reasons could it?

So Derek Perez "disrespected" Huang and that's why he's been let go?

I heard that he was just one of many who got the push at Nvidia. Oops old news from 2008

Any of you guys still remember this gem ?

(disclaimer: it's a joke article -- someone always takes it seriously)

Derek P says he has a "new adventure"

probably with a new startup [is my guess]; he took Nvidia about as far as a PR guy can take them .. i imagine his job is getting "routine"

Still can't figure out why nvidia gave this story to charlie.

Was Nvision 08 open to the public? Because if they aren't, the last time I checked, the inquirer has not been, nor will ever be invited to an nvidia event.
This comment in the blog:

"Of course, the spinner wasn't initially aware he was sitting next to an INQ journo."

Or maybe the Inq. journo bought a single share of stock?

Or, the inq. journo just went in undercover pretending to be someone else.

Or it simply never happened and the inquirer person made up all that BS while sitting in a hotel room trying to figure out how they were going to con their management out of another paycheck.

If someone openly acknowledges themselves as having so little ethics as a journalist that they are willing to snoop thru another person's personal communications on their laptop screen then I'd be willing to bet that person has little enough ethics as to just make shit up as if it were real to begin with.

Nvidia didn't give anything to Charlie; it was from his tweet that Mr Perez broke the news
