Chapter 336 (2/2)
Now, the alpha processor is in Henry's hands. It doesn't matter whether windows system supports it or not. At least Apple system and Linux will support alpha processor! In fact, because of the collusion between Microsoft and Intel, Williams electronics launched alpha processor, and Microsoft will not support it, at least it is impossible to maximize the performance of alpha processor!
Henry is going to let people redevelop stronger processors on the basis of the original. DEC company has no money to continue to develop alpha processors. As a result, an extremely excellent processor that can crush Intel at that time finally disappeared. Henry came to save it!
Now that alpha is in Henry's hands, we won't let bad money drive good money!
“AlphaPower”！
The new processor is called ”alpha power”, the more powerful alpha!
Henry wants alpha to fatten up Intel and let it know what is powerful!
To this end, Henry decided to invest $2 billion in the development of the alphapower processor.
Soon, all the alpha processor architecture development departments moved to the headquarters of Williams electronics company in San Jose. Henry said to them, ”the main reason why alpha processor failed is that there was a problem in the development strategy of DEC company. Now, we need to develop bigger processors and cooperate with apple, Just like the cooperation between Microsoft and Intel! ”
”Intel has Microsoft support, alpha has Apple support. Now it seems that their combination is stronger, but I believe that sooner or later, alpha pple alliance will beat Wintel alliance! ”
Henry said: ”the alpha processor architecture department will go out on its own and form alpha company. The new processor we are going to develop is called 'alpha power'. I will inject 2 billion US dollars into the company. It doesn't matter how much money I burn, but I must improve the technology! ”
”In order to make everyone more motivated, the salary of all alpha employees will be increased by 20%, and the company will start the equity incentive plan and give 10% shares to reward the employees who have contributed to the company!” In recent years, DEC company has been losing money. We can imagine the treatment of its employees. Henry is also worried about the poor treatment, they will change jobs. These engineers are all outstanding talents, one less is a loss!
As soon as Henry's words were finished, the staff got excited!
”Thank you, Mr. Williams!”
”Thank you, Mr. Williams!”
“……”
Clapping and clapping!
Henry laughed, raised his hand and motioned for silence. Then he appointed Richard, chief architect of alpha and head of the Department, as CEO of alpha.
Richard was in his forties, about 180cm tall, with a flat head and a pair of black framed glasses. He was the first processor designer to propose alpha architecture. He was very surprised by Henry's appointment as CEO of the company and said, ”thank you for your trust. I will try my best to manage alpha company.”
Henry nodded with a smile.
Alpha Company is full of talents. In addition to Richard, there are derrick Meyer, who will design K7 processor for AMD company, James Keller, who will design K8 processor, Daniel leibholz, who will develop ultrasparc-v for Sun company, and several architects who will design strongarm-110 processor. They have a strong team and are not inferior to Intel company at all!
On the contrary, the strongarm-100 processor project was proposed by inlet and cooperated with DEC, but after the collapse of DEC company, the brain drain, Intel company itself has no ability to do a good job in the strongarm-100 processor project, and finally the project can only die!
It can be seen that Intel can't
