First thought when reading the headline was that the "Man" I would expect to do such a thing would be Sam Zeloof. If it had said "Woman" instead, my guess would have been Jeri Ellsworth ;) "By switching from a metal gate process to a polysilicon gate process, he was able to reduce the chip's required voltage input from 10v to just 1v, reducing power consumption significantly." - doesn't power consumption of chips scale with U^2, i.e. reducing voltage to 1/10 makes power consumption drop to 1/100? I could not find the numbers yet...
