Will Apple take down old posts?

I have one or two old posts on Apple.com's website using my real name. It shows up in a google search. I would like them taken down. However, I can't find the log in information any longer. Do you think Apple would remove them or at least allow me to change my username so my real name no longer shows up in a web search?
Thanks

That's something you are going to have to ask them directly.

Apple archives posts after so long. As Crimson advised, you'll have to ask someone there what their policy is on removing posts.
