Same for HP and Lenovo. Those sites are such a disaster and I'm surprised that nobody in their sales orgs are raising hell. There has to be lost sales due to not being able to easily find things. Those sites are incredibly slow as well.
But I'm guessing that's the point - make it confusing and unusable to steer people to specific choices??
However, just because a device exists on PSREF doesn't mean it's actually available to purchase anywhere, particularly since COVID.
I think there are stories of companies exploiting this, Microsoft with Windows and MS Works and Office, Apple and their angling on education, Adobe cultivating future Photoshop professionals in various formal and informal ways (a relationship they've since shit all over).
Seems like a missed opportunity.
