A third party press release from Magma Design Automation has a wonderful quote from Ward Vercruysse, CAD director, Computing Solutions Group at AMD, which is very amusing and a little surprising considering the Barcelona delays and errata problems now fully confirmed if not detailed. 

Vercruysse said, “In the computing, graphics and consumer electronics markets, being
first to market is everything.”

That is definitely a ‘Quote of the Week’ candidate if only we did a ‘Quote of the Week’ column!
