No more XPS, Inspiron, Latitude? Yep. Dell is eliminating its well-known PC family names across its laptop and desktop PC stacks, aiming to simplify what's what for new customers.

This rework marks a major shakeup for Dell's PC naming schema, which has used the Inspiron, XPS, Latitude, and Precision monikers since the 1990s. In consolidating its branding, Dell hopes to make it easier for consumers to figure out which device will best match their needs, streamlining the oft-complicated experience of buying a PC.

Dell announced that the XPS brand is dead, and its computers will have more straightforward names going forward.
