I recently tried to configure a Proliant DL385 Gen11, in order to give my sales rep a coherent list of "this is what I want" in terms of CPUs, memory and disks. And let me tell you, it's a sales experience that might just as well be a Monty Python sketch, it's so bad.
I mean literally, one of their subdomains had a certificate expired so that I had to add a security exception just to view the information. The page in question had select boxes that couldn't be scrolled, anything I did would just scroll the main page instead. Their other configurator (because ofc they need at least two different ones) was completely unusable, when you try to select a drive or something you get an explosion of recursive "to select that you also need to select this cable kit, one of those 4 cages and deselect that other thing" warnings. Like, if you know what to fix, just fix it!!
Windows is not really my thing for many years, so Apple is on the table in the battery life requirement, but I don’t think I’m coming back to Intel/AMD soon.
