Dell likes to make non standard changes to standard things like the ATX
power connector. Maybe they wanted to be proprietary like IBM mainframes
back in the 70s.
That strategy helped IBM corner the mainframe market, but drove them out
of the PC market. Too bad Dell didn't learn the lesson.
Not just Dell, I have a couple of HP Prodesk SFF PCs. Haswell i7, so still
adequate for lots of stuff. Unfortuately non-standard power supplies.
If they die, then they will be tossed onto dung-heap.
