Rahul Sood, Founder of VoodooPC, Leaving HP in December
Rahul Sood announced on his blog this morning that he is leaving Hewlett-Packard on December 1st. He has been chief technology officer of Global Gaming and Advanced Computing since HP acquired VoodooPC in September 2006. Rahul Sood was the original founder of VoodooPC in 1991 and led that company to prominence in the high-end gaming PC and workstation market. He is well known in the boutique space and someone that we have talked with well before he was acquired by HP.
It is with mixed emotions that I have decided to resign from my position as the CTO of Global Gaming for Hewlett-Packard, my last day will be December 1 2010. Ive struggled with this decision for many months. I have effectively been employed with one job for 20+ years (voodoo+hp) so it is the most difficult move that I have ever made in my life. I experienced some of the best moments and some of the most challenging moments of my career at HP. It has been an incredible opportunity. Leaving behind the Voodoo brand is not easy, not because I tattooed the logo on my leg, but because its my baby, I started it right out of high school. Over the years with the help of an incredibly talented team we built a company with soul and culture thats hard to describe, and difficult to replicate.
