This has to be sarcasm. No post can be this stupid.
I wish there was a generic block for text and text-related stuff on our user pages. I’d throw all the great quotes there and just put a link to it in my signature rather than have to wrangle with a 200 character limit and 150 pixel height limit.
Anybody who would leave Apple voluntarily is a bum. If he doesn't enjoy it, he should never have been there in the first place.

Calm down. Sometime ago users here decided to use the ¡ character as the sarcasm tag.
Good for the boy. With his money, why not set out to rediscover life. Looks like he enjoys more than 9-5, 7 days a week.
Who can say he remembers the mad climb of the decades that end in zeros, that all seem to run together, as well as we remember our singles and teen years?

There must be a lot of bums because a lot of people have left Apple lately, probably more than we know. Not everyone stays in a company forever, even if its the magical and wonderful Apple, Inc. I'm sure its not always the greatest place in the world to work all the time.
"I love Apple and the people I have had the privilege to work with and after 18 years here, it is time for me to take time for myself and my family," Oppenheimer said in a statement. "For quite some time, I have wanted to live on the central coast of California and get more involved at Cal Poly, my alma mater; spend more time with my wife and sons; travel to interesting parts of the world; and something I have wanted to do for years-- finish the requirements for my pilot's license."
18 years is a long time at one company.
During that time Apple went from the brink of ruin to the most powerful company on earth.
Not to bad of a legacy.
Too many people work to long and hard, destroying their health and their family in the process.
Peter is retiring at around 52 years of age with a fortune of around $200 million. Not too shabby!
He has worked hard and will now get to enjoy the rewards while he still has his health and his family.
Outgoing Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer said he plans to spend more time with his family, travel, and finish the requirements for a pilot's license."Peter is also a dear friend I always knew I could count on. Although I am sad to see him leave, I am happy he is taking time for himself and his family. As all of us who know him would have expected, he has created a professional succession plan to ensure Apple doesn't miss a beat."
Maestri helped Xerox change direction to a services company. Maybe he'll help Apple head into being a more service oriented company... hmmmm... that didn't sound quite how I intended... I mean, not that Apple will be a services company any time soon, just that services will take on a greater role.
That wouldn't be his call. The CEO sets the direction for the company, the CFO figures out how to pay for it.
Tim Cook did a major reorg in 2012 in which he promoted Eddy Cue to SVP of Internet Software and Services.
The software and services area has grown to a 4+ Billion dollar a quarter business.

It's a Windows and Android user (the combination is the worst kind). They appear to be parodying what they think the response of an Apple user would be, presumably to show up people who agree with his comments. I don't think it's having the intended effect though because instead of reinforcing their stereotype that Apple users make comments like this, it reinforces the stereotype that Windows and Android users prefer to make a nuisance of themselves. The comments aren't particularly harmful but it looks like the account has solely been setup for this purpose with a disposable email address.

Well, the CEO might set the direction but these days one of the CFO's jobs is to help set the direction by helping the team by forecasting the best routes for the company. If Cook has already decided to make services a more important aspect of the company then he might have hired Maestri for that exact purpose.
Besides, not once in my comment did I allude to this being Maestri's call.

That's just absurd.

Life is about more than work. Nobody on their deathbed ever wished they had spent more time at the office.

I left Apple voluntarily. I didn't enjoy it. I shouldn't have been there in the first place.
Not /s.

Idiotic comment. Did you expect him to stay until he dropped dead? Jesus...

Peter described himself as a dear friend?
