Bring Back the Dell Dude!

"Martha Stewart. Miss USA. Robert Downey Jr. Everybody loves a comeback story, so why not give Benjamin Curtis (the Dell Dude) another turn in the spotlight just in time for Dell's back-to-school push? Last we heard, the Dell Dude's record would be cleared if he behaved like a good boy for one year following his 2003 arrest on suspicion of trying to buy marijuana. I can see the campaign slogan now: "Just say no to HP!" - Mark Spoonauer, Editor in Chief of LAPTOP

Mark's right. A great way to kick off not just the August selling season, but to kick off the inevitable redesign of your product lines. Especially your notebook line. It's obvious that the new notebooks will have features similiar to HP's such as the 102 key full size keyboard on 17" screen models and perhaps a webcam. And your colour scheme will be something more sensible than the current silver and white.

Bring back the excitement of "DUDE?! You're getting a DELL!"

Because right now, I feel like getting a Dell is a comprimise at best, lesser of two evils at worse.
