This isn’t the first time I’ve blogged about the dearth of truly great PC laptops out there, and I suspect it won’t be the last.

Why do so many computer manufacturers organize their websites around obscure names of model ranges that only they understand, or make you decide upfront whether you want a “home” or “business” or “creator” laptop? Why do they all make it as difficult as possible for you to browse what’s on offer? Is it just because they all suck at website design, or is there some other reason?
I hate how dell has restructured their product lines recently. It’s very unintelligible now.
I can’t say for certain, but it screams “middle-management justifying their MBA salary” to me.
Maybe they believe that most of their customers don’t really know much about computers beyond turning them on and “bigger nunbers = better”. They might not be wrong.
Probably so that they can restructure the site to push different products as some are heavily backstocked and others are running low without people noticing the changes. If i had to guess.
Because that’s how people buy them?
Home users want cheap garbage with good graphics for gaming. Business users want consistent reliability at a moderate price. Creators want high res graphics and don’t care what they pay.
