As senior vice president of Mac Software Engineering, Federighi will continue to be responsible for the development of Mac OS X and Apple’s common operating system engineering teams. Federighi worked at NeXT, followed by Apple, and then spent a decade at Ariba where he held several roles including vice president of Internet Services and chief technology officer. He returned to Apple in 2009 to lead Mac OS X engineering. Federighi holds a Master of Science degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley.Apple has also announced that Mansfield will remain with the company rather than retiring as previously announced, staying on to "work on future products" and reporting directly to CEO Tim Cook.
Riccio, as senior vice president of Hardware Engineering, will lead the Mac, iPhone, iPad and iPod engineering teams. He has been instrumental in all of Apple’s iPad products since the first generation iPad. Riccio joined Apple in 1998 as vice president of Product Design and has been a key contributor to most of Apple’s hardware over his career. Dan earned a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 1986.

I'm not saying the 'Apple Television' is real. I'm just saying that if it IS real you'd put someone you already trusted in charge of it AND you wouldn't be able to announce that which would lead to weird nonsensical news stories like "Senior exec. leaves job but stays with company and reports to CEO."
Something like that.

Lucky thing all us guys here on MR are incredibly good looking with great hair, otherwise crapping on someone else (anonymously and hidden) might be considered a realty crummy thing to do.
But since we are all terrifically great, I guess it's OK to dump on someone else's looks. :cool:
