Something I think is a lot more interesting than them changing names of product lines is that almost all Dells ship with an OEM version of windows which reaches EoL faster, like 5 years sooner, and is more expensive to get a replacement disk image.

I had a tower about 10 years ago that I converted into a dinky little Linux Server, it worked really well all things considered.
