Gelsinger is alright. Definitely not a clueless PHB. He’s an engineer who designed Intel’s processors back in their heyday. He spent more than a decade rising up the ranks on the tech side before he got into management. This guy was a force in the microprocessor industry. They brought him back to right the ship and get back to and engineering culture after the PHB’s let the tech languish.

I don’t recall him really saying anything positive about the tech since he came back. I mean, they’re still selling what they have and making the most of it because that’s what they have to do. But it’s not like he’s been hyping anything. If he’s saying now that they have a good chip then I’m inclined to believe him.

The guy could be the king of England and I wouldn't care. I don't care what he has and has not hyped in the past. Believing a single word that comes out of a CEOs mouth about a product without any proof is just foolish.
