Will Steve Jobs stars in the next Mac commercial?

Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld recently starred in a series of Microsoft commercial to counter Apple's bashing of PC with the "I'm and PC, I am a Mac" commercial. Just in case you haven't watched the ads, here they are:

I cannot say the ads are funny, but they do give me a comfortable feeling about Gates or Microsoft in general, by showing that the company also has the human side to it. So, here is the prediction... Will Steve Jobs counter the Microsoft ads by staring in the next Mac commercial?

    Absolutely not. Steve is a smart guy who knows where his place is and what his strengths are. Besides, Apple already has a very successful marketing campaign with the "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" couple.

    Isn't the "No way" outcome the same as "result unknown by closing date"?!

    Anyways, I think the Microsoft commericial are not that funny. But a good atempt to win the heart of regular people like me.

    No, that's not the Apple style. Jobs probably enjoy Microsoft reacting to their ads, rather than the other way around.
