become a driving force in the microprocessor industry. Still, more
challenges and opportunities are ahead of us, and I plan to help AMD
capitalize on those opportunities to change the competitive dynamics of
the microprocessor industry and continue our sustained growth. My new
position also gives Hector more bandwidth to focus on leading the
company as CEO."
