You know, I think they might be done. In fact, I heard from John, I think they’re going to move on. I can’t say definitively, which is sad, because not only am I going to miss doing them, but also working with John.
Justin “I’m a Mac” Long • In an interview with The Onion A.V. Club, where he notes the popular Mac vs. PC ads he does with John Hodgman might be kaput. This would be really sad, because the ads are some of the industry’s best and most consistently clever.

John Hodgman is our hero. Between “The Areas of My Expertise,” “The Daily Show” and the “I’m A Mac” commercials, Hodgman has lots of nerd cred. So the fact that he calls Barack Obama the “nerd president” in this Radio & TV Correspondents’ Dinner speech is awesome and significant.source
