"Part surfer-dude, part techno-geek, Steven is actually 21-year-old acting student Ben Curtis, who's riding the wave as advertising's newest superstar. Just ask Dell. It claims a 100 percent increase in consumer sales since the Steven campaign began. "The phones are ringing. The [Web] site's being visited. We know it's working," says representative Claire Bennett."

Why do people like this punk?

:disgust:

Don't buy Dell as your protest...

Like him or not, he made you stand up and take notice :)

Any publicity is good publicity, no?

Are the ads broadcasted on national TV and am I the only one who hasn't seen Curtis' commercials?!

i think people like him b/c of the charlie brown thing. he always seems dumber than you and it's reassuring for dell purchasers that if he could figure that much out about computers, they will be totally fine.

Even though I make fun of him in my photochops, I am a fan of his.

I wish I could be like his character, in real life. :Q :eek:

The Dell dude works for Dell in the same way that Carrot Top works for AT&T.

They are so fscking annoying that they stick in your mind.

Hey, whatever works. And for one, I'm glad to see Dell doing good. There are millions of folks out there who will not, or cannot build their own. Out of all the big prebuilts, I'd say Dell is the best. It's a hell of a lot better than Compaq and HP.

Besides, I own Dell stock :p

:D "D00d! You're Getting a Dell!" :D

Cheesy as it sounds, it does have some sort of catchy ring to it. The fact that Dell keeps winning awards from PCWorld and PC Magazine (Deserved or not) may also conviince people to buy Dell.

I own a Dell Latitude CPi notebook and am very happy with it.
