It’s going to get better

 

At Nvidia’s headquarters we learned firsthand that some of the people that we've known for years have internally shifted responsibilities and now drive some other divisions.

Let’s start with Ujesh Desai, Nvidia’s VP of graphics, the chap that use to run Geforce business for years now, moved from this position to become a VP of product marketing. This role lets him focus on the holy trinity - Geforce, Tegra and Tesla and some extra Nforces and Ions surely won’t hurt anyone.

The other chap that shifted its position is Drew Henry, the guy that got Nvidia’s chipset to where it is now. He was responsible for Geforce and he also runs chipset which we find hard to believe.

Newcomer Phil Eisler the VP of AMD’s chipset division that deflected to Nvidia is supposed to run 3D stereo, which we absolutely refuse to believe. We and many other people in the industry are convinced that this is just a cover up since he probably has no compete agreement with AMD and it cannot publicly say that he does chipsets.

Mr Roy Taylor the chap that was running the way its meant to be played is now a VP sales figure responsible for Tegra and the strategy how to sell this chip to many telecoms and his place is taken over by Ashu Rege who now runs TWIMTBP, PhysX and developers relations.

We are sure that there is much more, but this is what we found out so far.
