You may have noticed that Graham Bell's blog has gone silent for the past week, and you may have asked yourself, “what's up with that?”

Graham began consulting for IBSystems, Inc. around four years ago and quickly took over --- management of EDACafe that is. His smooth and calm interviewing style and client interaction have made him a staple of the EDA community and a valuable addition to our staff. But alas, Graham has moved on to a management position at Real Intent, the design verification pros, and is sorely missed by the IBSystems team.

Yes Graham we miss your wry wit, your Canadian humor and your super work ethic. And, although you've moved on to bigger and better things we'll definitely stay in touch - We'll even be doing a video interview with you at this year's DAC so you can tell the entire world, in your own words, what your new position means to you and to the EDA industry.

Thank you for all you done for EDACafe and --- Congratulations Graham! We wish you continued success, health and happiness!
