"Ever ponder the fate of Ben Curtis, a.k.a. the Dell Dude? New York magazine did, and decided to track him down to see how things were going for the up and coming actor. Turns out, the former Dell poster boy now works at Tortilla Flats, a restaurant in New York the magazine describes as: "that species of cantina where you can scream 'whoo-hoo!,' make a lasso out of your Brooks Brothers belt and still find a date."

I'm not emotionally attached to the guy or anything (the commercials were annoying), but it is kind of sad that he lost his career because he tried to buy some pot.

Not that he was much of an actor to begin with. I doubt getting busted for possession held him back. Using drugs doesn't seem to have much affect on many actors' careers. Look at Robert Downy Jr. for Pete's sake!!
