Okay, he is tired from the long commute

Quote:

Orton said he tired of commuting from his Silicon Valley home to ATI's headquarters in Markham, Ontario, as he had done for seven years, and to AMD's offices in Austin. He plans to take several months off to spend with his wife and two children.

Orton said he had no other immediate business plans and would consider returning to AMD in the future.

Making sure Dave will not go to Nvda?
How much should we pay him to stay home for 3 years?
