VIA chipset team reportedly to jump to ASMedia

By

VIA Technology vice president and general manager of the company’s platform business, Chewei Lin, will resign from his post and take around 40 technicians from VIA’s chipset research team to join IC designer ASMedia Technology, a subsidiary of Asustek Computer, according to sources at VIA.

Lin decided to leave VIA because the company is being squeezed by companies like Intel, AMD and Nvidia plus the fact that the future of VIA’s chipset product line is uncertain, according to the sources.
