Pijani ATIjevci i Nvidijaši se potukli na fešti nakon Cebita

[Mailman]

So, in this socially lubricated setting, the usual mixing of companies, and the usual bragging took place. Company A runs into Company B and talks trash. Company B goes over to Company A's party and insults the lineage of their products, maternal lineage and fabrication facilities. It happens all the time, and is all part of the game.

Most see this a fun, and play along. A few get a tad hot under the collar, and in extreme cases food, drink and other things tend to mysteriously arc from one table to the other. All in good fun. When one side fraternizes with the other to the point of exchanging phone numbers, those who take it way to seriously, well, go ballistic.

Around midnight, when things start calming down, a little, and groups start heading out, something unusual happened. When company A walked out of the building, a pack from company B followed. The trash talking went from indoor friendly to outdoor very unfriendly, and several people wanted to throw down. Quite unusual.

We are told that at least one side did not want to escalate, and tried to walk away, when a person from company B pressed the issue. There was a minor physical altercation involving a person from company B on two occasions, described by some as something between shoving and punching.

This is a stupid thing to do in Europe, very stupid. Unlike America where drunken brawling gets you lucrative TV contracts, Europeans see this as antisocial behavior. Most companies seem to frown upon their PR staff getting into fights with the other side in front of witnesses and journalists with cameras. Cameras that take movies.

Luckily, it ended there, with Company A's reps jumping into a taxi before serious blood was spilled, or at least drunks flailed semi-effectually at each other. The story is now all over CeBIT, and there is no official fallout that we know of. When people in power get back to their desks in a few hours, it will be interesting to see what becomes of this.

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.

HEXUS has learnt the names of many of the ATi and NVIDIA personnel involved, but as ATi people eventually backed down from one of the fiery little NVIDIA aggressors, or perhaps decided that discretion was the better part of valour before fists were thrown, we're presently thinking we'll keep schtum.

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.

C'mon guys, it's only graphic chips...
