I think he means "[if Michael Dell died] would Dell remove their products from the landing page?". Dell does not have a personality like Apple did.
How about, if Tim Cook died, would Apple do the same?

If I remember correctly (I'm not totally sure), a few years ago Apple had a full page tribute when one of their directors died. So I'd say yes, probably.
EDIT: This was it: http://mashable.com/2010/03/18/jerome-york-tribute/
Do you mean "[in a world where Samsung or Dell had a public personality like Steve Jobs] would they remove the products from their landing page?" or do you mean "[if Michael Dell died] would Dell remove their products from the landing page?"
If they had someone like Steve they definitely would. They don't, so it doesn't matter.
