Did Phil Schiller get his picture taken in a discotheque?
If you are referring to Antonio Salieri, he did not kill Mozart. Mozart died of rheumatic fever. However it certainly looks like the actor that played Antonio Salieri in the film Amadeus.
Look it is easy to see what happened to Mansfield...
Mansfield decided to retire. Cook said ok. In the meanwhile he watches underlings in the department f-up stuff including the e-peat (environmental stuff) debacle which Mansfield graciously took the fall for. Then in other departments where people have left Tim Cook watches more screw ups, like with the Apple Store "layoffs" that had to be immediately rescinded. Finally the quality control elsewhere shows flaws with a series of bad tv commercials coming out that also have to be erased from the airwaves and the internet within days of coming out. All this has to be concerning to Cook even though the company overall still continues to print money.
Soooo.... Tim Cook goes to Mansfield and says he needs his experience to help guide future manfuactrering decisions. Bob says "sorry, I want to sit on the beach in Mexico!" Tim then offers him more money than God, lets him keep a SVP title, and offers to let him works a couple days here and there around whatever schedule he basically wants, ie. to be a high paid consultant really and Bob, goes "sounds good!"
Tim Cook has more money than God at this point and I think he just paid a retiring vet a brick ton of money to stay in a made up title roll just to consult on decisions parttime...

Wow
That dude scares me. He looks like one of the Sprockets dudes on SNL (of long ago). That, or a totally 70's creepy bar guy. I was just making fun of Google for all the weirdo looking people they have working for them and this happens.

Bob!!
Bob!!!! You made my day!!!!! I'm stoked now baby!!! Keep them focused, slap a few heads, scream at Scott a few more times. 9 more to go Bob. You can do it.
Glad that decision went Apple's way, eh Bob?
Craig, and Dan. Report to Bob.

Ok I have no idea what you just said. Wtf does hardware engineering have to do with TV ads and Apple retail stores?
Salieri didn't kill Mozart! And the actors name is F. Murray Abraham, thus he looks like F. Murray Abraham...!
sorry everyone, but this is the funniest thread on this forum in a long while! I've been pissing myself laughing at Hall and Oates, and the Amadeus guy and the bloke with the Shredded Wheat on his head... and he hadn't even been Photoshopped!
I'm pretty sure every Senior Vice President of Apple is European (and male).

But seriously, Dan Riccio must have made a conscious decision at some point to wear a black turtleneck for his official photo. Weird.
