So what does this mean for Apple? Two senior executives departing on the same day would cause major shockwaves at any large company, especially when one of them Rubenstein is responsible for the company's most profitable and fastest growing division - the iPod.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what Fadell brings to the table before passing judgement. An aside: this story got me to thinking about an incident that occurred at Macworld Expo in San Francisco.
When my badge spun around Rubenstein quickly noticed who I was and remarked "Oh, I know who you are Best keyboard Because you deserve better. I want it to always be responsive. Tevanian is probably the best OS guy on the planet. Maybe new voices can take it a new direction. Anybody that dogmatic really should have to go.
To bad he is leaving Apple. Not to many other places to go from there…. Finder was hated by everyone inside of NeXT engineering. Just out of curiosity, I wanted to ask the question… what do so many find so wrong with the finder? Personally, I think it keeps getting better and better, and now going back to 9. And that just doesn't feel good to me. 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.
It really isn't. A few minor interface changes for consistency sure, but OSX still remains very powerful and Lion is mostly adding features not removing them to dumb it down. So they added an application management screen that can be interacted with like the iPad screen, so what?
The departures come just as Apple celebrates its 30th anniversary, with the actual milestone occurring on Saturday. Tevanian helped to lead development of Apple's Mac OS X, which celebrated its fifth birthday last week.
