HardwareZone CES 2004 Report

HardwareZone’s CES 2004 coverage includes pics from NVIDIA’s booth: Jim Henson’s Creature Shop performing a live interactive 3D Dawn demo, Media Center PCs and Mini PCs (check out the tubular PC from Absolut!), and an interview with Dr. David Kirk, the Chief Scientist at NVIDIA:

HWZ : When we talk about transistors, no one else make transistors like Intel. Do you see them as a threat?

Kirk : I think that Intel is a great company and I don’t think they have the passion for graphics. The content of the GPU is not just transistors. It’s algorithmic knowledge and expertise in graphics. I think there are 10 times as many graphics architects at NVIDIA as at Intel. So, I think it would be very hard for them to build what we build, and at the same time, it would be very hard for us to build what they build. That’s what makes us good partners.
