Looks like the rumor was correct. Just the date was wrong.
Probably see this posted as soon as i submit the thread. Hopefully not though.

Yes! One of the worst leaders in corporate America EVER is leaving!
"To exist in this vast universe for a speck of time is the great gift of life. Our tiny sliver of time is our gift of life. It is our only life. The universe will go on, indifferent to our brief existence, but while we are here we touch not just part of that vastness, but also the lives around us. Life is the gift each of us has been given. Each life is our own and no one else's. It is precious beyond all counting. It is the greatest value we have. Cherish it for what it truly is."

For all the things he's done for AMD, his compensation should be 1/10 of that.

AMD wants Ferrari Cake, not Acura cake!but maybe we won't see AMD logo on Ferrari anymore
Hector had no part in K8 while he was CEO....
K8 pretty much sold itself because it was a Killer architecture.
Everything under Hector's watch has gone downhill....need I say more?
Asus P5B-D WiFi
E6300 L626 @ 3.2@ 1.32V
EVGA 7900GTX
Big Typhoon Air cooling
Crucial Ballistix 2x1GB Anniversary
320GB SeagateSATA
Enermax 460W PS
In terms of the K8 being a good product, yes... and when AMD got to the point they could deliver in volume, it really made a difference.
However, I would tend to disagree ... in part. Hector orchistrated bringing AMD out of the doldrums of being a second rate supplier to a credible player. He pushed the customer centric culture and philosophy and under his watch penetrated markets AMD has never ever been before.
That does not mean his departure would not be a good thing, the current strategy of market share at all costs is driving the company into the ground.
