    I really hope they don't bring in someone external. Nvidia has a unique and special work culture that should be preserved by someone inside.

    Jenson is going to have 50 job offers sitting on his doormat by Monday morning.

    And a handful of them will be worth $1B or more.

    Johny Srouji had to be convinced to stay at Apple around about a year ago. Surely he's being considered for this?

    Does anyone regard any post Saxby Arm CEO as successful? What success they have had has largely been down to momentum and Apple.

    OTOH if Jensen doesn't make a comeback it's hard to see nVidia keeping their momentum at all, which is likely to be the entire point.

    The Nvidia board is dumber than bag of hammers.
