so let me start this off by saying i dont work for nvidia or the graphics industry at all.
anyhow last night i go down to san jose to meet my friend from yahoo southern california who is at some trade show. we meet up another friend and wander around downtown san jose. i live near oakland so i really have no idea where we are.
anyhow we go to this bar called "voodoo lounge" and it turns out there a ton of people with random nvidia glowing necklaces and a live band on stage. so i ask a random person whats with all the nvidia gear and he says that they got them from the gpgpu conference and that nvidia sponsored the night.
so i eventually notice that the ceo of nvidia is on stage with his arms around 2 women and he looks like he's having a great time. so for the most part the rest of the night is us wandering around the bar, me randomly dancing on the dance floor a few times because random nvidia employees took my beer and us noticing its about 85% male in there.
so towards the end of the night i'm talking to some random guy outside who works on cuda compilers and another guy named jimmy. jimmy tells me that jen-hsun is still in the bar and its near 2am at this point. so i wanted to meet him so we go back inside, and i go up to the ceo of nvidia and say, hey whats up, i don't work for nvidia but i recognized you and you are so awesome for still being here. anyhow i remember jen-hsun saying that he bets i could beat up jimmy and that i said i wanst sure since he might be some kung fu master and rip my eye out like in kill bill and then we left the bar.
that said, i have an amd computer with amd chipset. when asked some of the nvidia employees there said that nvidia was going to come out with something awesome to beat the 5870. and jen-hsun huang is the coolest ceo of a tech company ever.
so yeah basically one of the more bizarro cool nights i've had haha.
