Dude, We Disapprove of Dell

So we may have helped hasten Dell's decision to lay off workers at its Winston-Salem plant by not replacing the one Dell product we owned. (Sweet Digital Jukebox, dead before your time!) Round Rock, Texas and Limerick, Ireland will also see job cuts in the tech giant's struggle to contain losses. Then again, the Dell spokesdude is now a New York City waiter, so he probably doesn't have much sympathy. But we've got enough for him, so cut those wires and fly free.

Spaghetti -- Northwest is offering a $175 r/t fare to Boston, where you can take in all the pasta you want in the city's North End hidden treasures.

Surf -- Continental, Northwest and U.S. Airways are competing for your dollar to fly you to Los Angeles from Greensboro -- and at $225 r/t, you'll be able to afford a surfing lesson when you get there.

Sangria -- Hablas espanol? Work on a marketable skill for your next job and enjoy Gaudi architecture and the local color of Barcelona. (Yes, we know many people here speak Catalan, but they will be willing to practice with you... promise.) Leave March 25, fly Continental and stay in the city for $660/person on Lastminute.com.
