Lebron James will appear in Microsoft Vista television ads starting next week, and I’m guessing the ads will include some new-for-Vista notebooks. At first glance, the basketball star may appear out of place promoting the new OS, but he has said he wants to be the world’s richest man- so getting in with Gates and Co. might be a good step in that direction. Microsoft is definitely looking to get some street-cred with the kids.
I’d love to see him slap around the Apple Guy in the new commercials.
