Dell’s Train Wreck

Table of Contents

Our newest employee requested a windows computer so I went Dell shopping for the first time in years. What a nightmare.

Visiting Dell’s site is enough to make you want to switch to a Mac. Dell’s product lines have so much overlap, I have no idea how anyone chooses the laptop that’s best for them. Their 4 different lines with silly names are described as: professional, budget, premium, and advanced. WTF. Tossing out the budget one leaves you with 3 extraordinarily similar looking lines of computers.

Apple has two simple lines: the thinner and lighter Air and the heavier and more powerful Pro. Easy enough.
