Su’s mother and Nvidia co-founder and former CEO Jensen Huang are first cousins. Su’s maternal grandfather is the eldest brother of Huang’s mother.

    Anyone who has any loyalty to any company is not safe. The only safe option is to treat companies as your rival. They will charge you as much as you let them, your job is to reciprocate that rivalry by voting against them (and for yourself) and abandoning them for their rivals as soon as they turn on you.

      People liked AMD for the same reason people like Pixel phones. Not because the company is wonderful, but the hardware allowing more modification and support for open source activities. And very little options when it comes to the hardware criteria they are looking for compared to those that stick to corporate operating systems.
