The Nvidia booth
Denny’s, 2484 Berryessa Road, San Jose, California
Still from the original video by CBS 60 Minutes
Three engineers kept meeting over coffee in a corner booth of this Denny’s on Berryessa Road through the early months of 1993, working out whether there was a business in putting a dedicated graphics chip in a personal computer. Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem incorporated Nvidia on 5 April that year. Huang has said they were not good customers, because they sat for hours and ordered very little. In 2023, with the company past a trillion dollars, Denny’s came back and screwed a plaque to the wall above the table. It calls it the booth that launched a trillion dollar company. You can still sit in it.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
