Why is #3 relevant? Voodoo was the name of (at the time) the hands down best quality graphics cards on the market. Was 3DFX some 'kid' because it decided to name its product after magic? His product was a well made, top end PC and was aptly named. Compared to the rest of the market, his PC was literally magic. Why this makes him a kid, I have no fucking clue. I hate seeing the word 'kid' used to describe anyone young and talented. It's derogatory. "Look someone young did something mentionable" it's as derogatory as "Look a woman's in technology gasp!" This guy was obviously going to fund this project himself, so again I don't see what the relevance of #2. It's $1500, if he had it in his account he'd have likely used it. If he'd have taken out a loan, he'd have been charged almost an identical interest rate . . . but he's 17 so he'd have likely been denied for a loan anyway. How could he have got investors? It's $1500, the only people willing to give that would have been family and dealing with money with family tends to be a bad idea. Instead of going to family, like a child would, and simply asking for money that may well have never been paid back he took the debt onto himself. How not being a leech on your family can be childish, I don't know. I still know people well into their 20's who still leech off of their families for cash, this guy at 17 acted maturely. Mixergy links virtually always get a click from me because they're good. If I hadn't heard of VoodooPC before, I wouldn't have touched this link, the title is god awful. It tells nothing, and the article (at least the writing) is shit awful. No mention that this "kid" now works for HP! This was very poor writing by Andrew. He's a good interviewer, but he seriously needs to work on his copy editing to sell his interview talents.
