Interview with ATIs Raja Koduri

[digitalwanderer]

You ignorant sluts, is there any new information in this interview or what?

Nah, or else we'd be arguing about that instead of just made up stuff.

Now, i'd understand if that was said by a marketing guy, but an engineer?..

You have to remember that everyone from a company who is allowed to talk to the press has been brainwashed before by the marketing department. Thus there is not really a difference reading interviews with marketing guys or engineers, the interview we're talking about here is a very good example for that.

This doesn't look very brainwashed to me:

Raja Koduri:

We always keep our technical engagements with the ISVs totally separate from our marketing (read “moneyâ€￾) engagements. On technical front we worked closely with both Valve and Id Software. If it is true that Doom3 is more optimized for Nvidia hardware there are only two ways to look at it in my opinion. Nvidia technical team did a better job with Id or the ATI technical team did a bad job.

Dave, a misunderstanding about a perceived slight, or a continued misunderstanding about the interview? I'm inclined to (misunderstand ) the latter.
