Jobs boxingTo be a fly on the wall at the All Things Digital conference currently going on in Carlsbad. I mean, it’s a bastion of hard-hitting journalism. We heard from Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates this morning, this afternoon, WSJ tech god Walt Mossberg talked to Dell Computer CEO Michael Dell. I’m not sure whether or not the ruling we reported on this morning came up, but according to Engadget, when given a chance to ask questions, one audience member threw out the question that millions of tech geeks all over the world have been wondering.

Could Michael Dell beat Steve Jobs in a fight?

Dell flatly replied, “Yeah, I could take him.”

Oh, it is on. Now we admit: Michael’s a pretty big dude; he’s probably got Steve on mass alone. But Steve is lithe and quick, which might even it out a bit. Still, I guess we have to give it to Mr. Dell.

Unless, of course, it’s a Googlefight:

Google Fight

Sorry, Mike. I think that’s a TKO. What say you, readers? Who’s your money on in the rumble between Michael “The Madman” Dell and “Savage” Steve Jobs?
