Hostility between ATi and NVIDIA staff starts to become physical

But late last night eyewitnesses saw months of increasingly ill blood between core personnel from ATi and NVIDIA, erupt into what seemed set to become a physical confrontation.

As is often the case, at the centre of such alcohol fuelled loutish behaviour, was an attractive girl...

The scene seems to have been set when one senior ATi mischief maker (who, like one of its previous marketing directors the night before), probably shouldn't have really been anywhere near the NVIDIA party) went out of his way to try and engage with an NVIDIA girl in more than just idle and polite chatter.

When his opposite number at NVIDIA seemed to decide that there may be some strategic motives against NVIDIA'S interests behind the situation, matters became increasingly tense, and NVIDIA people followed ATi staff outside the Munchner Halle, and its reported that both camps effectively squared up to each other.

@Rahul --- from the same source ---

This isn't the first high-tension incident where the ingredients have been alcohol, ATi and NVIDIA – apparently one evening drinking session at Hannover's 'Irish Bar' during last year's CeBIT, saw a most ungallant face from the UK IT channel hurl profane abuse at one of NVIDIA's very senior female staff members, but ironically it was reported that it was an ATi representative that stood forward to intercede and protect her honour.
