    no problem, time to go

    He's done his job, became rich by doing so.

    He'll find a life now, maybe he's having fun being an angel investor.

    Lot's of opportunities available in that space, especially in Israel.

    He's gonna be fine, and'll stay committed to Intel.

    Join Qualcomm? Qualcomm did recruit it's CMO from Intel after the Intel-Nokia fiasco.
