Dell Dude Lives

Good news for those of you like myself who spent sleepless nights worrying about the fate of Benjamin Curtis, the hip gentleman who appeared in Dell Computer ads from 2000-2003. It seems that Curtis is currently starring in an Off-Broadway production entitled "Joy," and my fears of him being addicted to crack and living on the street are entirely unfounded. Curtis' relationship with Dell began to fall apart after he was caught by police in Manhattan with a small bag of cheeba (or marijuana for the laymen). If you live in New York, I suggest that you purchase tickets for the show and find a witty way of integrating the "Dude, you're getting a Dell" slogan into some sort of heckle. Perhaps something like, "Dude, you're getting a Tony."
