We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

AMD Looking For New CFO
Until AMD finds a new CFO, Rivet will hold down both jobs

The newly reconstituted AMD is looking for a new CFO.

Its current CFO Bob Rivet has been named chief operations and administrative officer, basically replacing Dirk Meyer, now CEO, who used to be COO before his apotheosis.

In his new role, Rivet, 54, will be responsible for the company's supply chain, HR and IT.

Until AMD finds a new CFO, Rivet will hold down both jobs.

Meanwhile, Emilio Ghilardi, general manager of sales for EMEA, will be chief sales officer starting next year.

His predecessor Gustavo Arenas will transition into a role focused exclusively on strengthening AMD's global customer and strategic relationships. Ghilardi will continue in his current role until a replacement is announced.

Ghilardi joined AMD earlier this year from HP, where he was general manager of HP's EMEA Consumer Business Unit, managing a multibillion-dollar business for consumer PCs and imaging and printing products.
