Whatever happened to "Steve - the Dell Dude"

[Goldfinger]

It seems like he dropped off the face of the Eath. Anyone heard what he's up to?

I think he overdosed on cocaine in his trailer when he was making one of the commercials. He was always cracked out, so that's what I'm guessing.

I honestly don't think he died or anything like that. He was so much of a cultural icon at the time- we would have remembered if anything serious happened to him. Last I heard of him - he got caught smoking weed -and Dell got him fired. They didn't want him doing the commercials anymore. That's the last I heard of him.
