    I think that it would be insanely hilarious if they came out and introduced themselves as "I'm a Mac", and "I'm a PC"..... of course then the debate would probably degenerate into a fight, with Jobs chucking iPhones at Bill, and Bill chucking Zunes at Jobs....LOL

    Since Jobs so wants to be Bill, he'll probably just skin bill and wear him like a coat.

    Probably will be on Gates' site on MS server with his other "shows" ;)

    I'm looking forward to this debate - Gates and Jobs got some good ideas, so it might be interresting :)

    Now this, will be bloody brilliant.

    The Cisco CEO and Lucas will probably have some interesting points, aside from the obvious spectacularity of Jobs vs. Gates. :D

    (And all we'd need is John Carmack on stage to tell them they're both idiots! :p )

    Well i hope bill does his homework so he can launch a massive blow and make sure steve knows what a total defeat means. But seeing Bill's recent interview he will most probably loose since as he would have to support the zune. Steve job sort of reminds me of hitler... he knows not much about technology but he can please the people can create a fanbase (like SS) that will buy anything for what ever the price.

    Woah.

    Hold on there. Steve Jobs might not be perfect (unless you're an Apple nut) but even if you're not a total Mac-Convert; comparing him and his fans to Hitler and the SS, is very off-base.

    I'm not exactly biased either way; both men (and their respective companies) have their plusses and minuses -- but since when did Jobs suffer a 'total defeat' from Bill Gates?

    I seem to be seeing more and more people on the UK shores, particularly, whom are suddenly discovering how nice things are in the OSX world.

    It's in both their interests to remain cool, calm and collected, otherwise you will look bad up there.

    I'm not saying a fist fight wouldn't be interesting though.

    Jobs: "Hi, I'm a Mac"

    Gates: "Your commercials are mostly lies and I outsell you 30:1. No I'm not playing your silly game - Macs got no game(s)."

    Not a total defeat but he had to accept Apple turning to x86 architecture to gain more market share, right?

    3% v. 90%

    I'd say that's a total defeat right there.

    There's a bit of inaccurate information in the article. At MacWorld 1997 OSX wasn't even discussed (OS8 having just been released iirc from my early Mac days)
    The appearance of Bill Gates can be seen here on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxOp5mBY9IY
