Although the deal has not been finalized, a source has told the Associated Press that Jerry Seinfeld will be a key spokesperson in a planned $300 Million advertising campaign for the software giant.

It’s been reported by The Wall Street Journal that Jerry Seinfeld will receive $10 Million to appear in ads with none other than Bill Gates.

The purpose behind the advertising blitz is to try to make up for some of the lost sales to Apple.  The question on the experts’ minds is does someone Jerry Seinfeld’s age have what it takes to woo the younger generation?  Neither Seinfeld or his rep have confirmed the rumor.

Time will tell.
