I knew them all: Jack Gifford founded AMD (mainly to make analog and 2nd source NSC popular devices), the investors would sign up with Jerry only and so he became the CEO!
Jack then left the company and after a short stint at Intersil he next founded Maxim.
We, he and I shared birthdays on Jan 10th and next he, but not I, climbed Mauna Kea to celebrate his day and never made it back home from there again.
