AMD's Chief Technology Officer Resigns

AMD's CTO Phil Hester, has resigned to 'search for new opportunities'

The decision to leave was Hester's, and he left on good terms, said Rob Keosheyan, an AMD spokesman. Hester hasn't announced what he's going to do or where he's going, Keosheyan said. The company has no plans to replace him. Hester wasn't responsible for product or silicon development, Keosheyan said. AMD divides those responsibilities between CTOs in five business units, and that will continue. Hester helped establish the breakdown of product development to unit CTOs, Keosheyan said. The business units in AMD are client, handheld, digital television, graphics, and server.
