My philosophy is, I can't make every product that can possibly use a high-performance CPU and graphics. Why shouldn't I enable others, in a positive fashion, to leverage AMD IP in more places?

I just had a great curiosity about how things worked.

What's important for all of us as chip companies is to keep the innovation going: putting out new products, figuring out how we connect these complex systems.

When I step back and look at what's important to AMD, it's about graphics leadership - visual computing leadership - as well as a strong computing experience. We have the capability to integrate those two together.

I think it's much harder now with the Internet to hone anything. It's easy to share things: you do one track, and it goes on Hype Machine; people are being exposed a lot earlier.

Reaching out to other people is important work. I am so pleased and honored that I'm getting the attention from the young people on social media. It's been missing.

We're in a new world. We're in a world in which the possibility of terrorism, married up with technology, could make us very, very sorry that we didn't act.

I don't know if I've owned a piece of technology that I hated - I don't think I would have owned it then.
