Justin Long a Mac no longer?
Radar Online is reporting that Justin Long, the actor who plays the part of the Mac in Apple's Get a Mac campaign, is no longer an Apple spokesman. A new round of ads is being worked on with John Hodgman (the PC) and director Phil Morrison but Justin Long with not appear in them, according to his 'people.'Was this Apple's decision, or Justin's? We may never know, but Justin's representative said, "Justin's a movie star, not a commercial guy."
So, dear TUAW readers, who do you think should fill his shoes as the Mac in the new commercials?
Thanks, Matt.

They should stop bashing on the PC, and release stupid Mac OSX for any PC user to install on their machine.
what about the movie Herbie or the other one where he starts his own college...
