Andy Grove, the brilliant Hungarian-born former chief executive
and chairman of chip-making colossus Intel, and one of Silicon
Valley's most revered business leaders, died Monday at the age
of 79. During his three decades with the Santa Clara
corporation, the gruff and demanding Grove helped mold Intel
into a multibillion-dollar Goliath and the world's biggest
semiconductor company. Along the way, he also became a prolific
author, donated millions of dollars to charity and was lavished
with awards, including being named Time magazine's Man of the
Year.
