Sure. Joe Average has no clue about that though. Most of the main vendors suffer from the same proliferation of models. Look at Dell:
Latitude - For Business
Vostro - for Small Business (WTF? Why is this a different model from Latitude?)
Inspiron - For Home and Home Office (Seriously? Why isn't this satisfied by either of the other two models?)
Precision Workstations - For professional creators (that seems like a reasonable distinction, but then looking at the specs it's not really, it's just a slightly higher spec than other models)
XPS - For the Ultimate experience (Okay.. but what about Precision Workstation then? Why on earth does something called the Ultimate have worse spec than some of the other not-ultimate models?)
