Yougang, Re: Hector Ruiz's take over of AMD has officially begun. I like this news: Looks like Hector is here to stay. I think this is a departure on good terms with Barton since he's staying for a while at AMD and is praised in the press release. Does anyone know how old he is? (maybe retiring) Andreas
