HP acquired VoodooPC and its founder Rahul Sood in 2006, and it's been
a wild ride ever since. The ever out-spoken Rahul has brought a lot of
"Voodoo DNA" to HP products, most notably the Envy line, but also
witnessed the slow fade of the actual Voodoo brand. He also went on a
lot of extreme cycling trips in-between all the product teases and
wild statements. Rahul isn't saying exactly why he's leaving HP, but
he has penned a substantial blog post detailing some of Voodoo's
history and thanking a whole bunch of people and companies. As for his
time with HP: "We merged, we invented, we kicked ass, and we had fun,
but then things got a little complicated." What he means by
"complicated" is unclear, but whatever Rahul is moving on to next (he
says he "can't wait to be directly involved in a product pipeline
again," for what it's worth), we're sure he'll do it with his
trademark flair for the dramatic that we've come to know and love.
