As part of the commercial campaign, Curtis portrayed character Steven who would inform prospective buyers on all perks that came to own a Dell computer. After the party was sold on the idea he would close the conversation with the catchphrase "Dude, you're getting a Dell". Curtis left Dell in 2003 after running into some personal legal problems.

In January 2013, Curtis published news with his comments that he could help company that he used to promote. According to Curtis, the solution was simple: bring back the "Dell Dude."
