Laid Off Engineer Shoots And Kills Siport CEO And VP: "The tough economic times across the U.S. and in Silicon Valley are being felt all round. Layoffs are rampant everywhere including high tech - from startups to established giants. Nearly 1.2 million jobs have been lost this year and more than 10 million Americans are now unemployed. Sun announced yesterday that it will be laying off 6K people, eBay, Intuit, and Yahoo have all had layoffs as well, and countless other companies including Web 2.0 companies have shed employees. Unfortunately, things took a terrible turn yesterday when an Engineer laid off from a local semi-conductor company, Siport, shot and killed the company CEO, Sid Agrawal, VP of Operations, Brian Pugh, and an unidentified woman."
