Amid all the noise emanating from Washington DC today, it is great to see some exciting positive news about HP -- high-end gaming machine crafter VoodooPC is joining the HP fold, w00t! Voodoo Prexy/CTO Rahul Sood has a wonderful long post about how this came about. This is excellent, folks, just superb. Welcome Rahul, Ravi & the entire Voodoo team.

Update: Heh, Brian Lam at Gizmodo sez: "And sweet baby Jesus, what kinds of watercooled, monster machines are you guys going to start building with a harem of HP engineers at your beck and call." Dude, how about a gamerz datac3nt3r in a shipping containorz?

And more: Four days after the announcement, Rahul was in Palo Alto for the firehose treatment at Labs. I can't say what we talked about, but I can tell you that he's a very smart guy who really loves geeky stuff, and we are going to have a ton of fun together ;-)
