Dell Vostro

Dell Vostro is a line of computers from Dell aimed at the small businesses. In 2013, this line discontinued on some Dell websites but continued to be offered in other markets, such as Malaysia.

Prior to Vostro, Dell's home and small business computers were sold under the same lines: Dimension for home and small business desktops, and Inspiron for home and small business portables. With the introduction of Vostro, the Dimension line was retired, and the Inspiron line changed to include all computers for the home market -- regardless of form factor. One marked difference between the Inspiron line and the Vostro line is that the Vostro line is more affordable but comes with shorter technical support hours.

Temporary discontinuation

In July 2013, Dell announced that they would stop manufacturing all Dell Vostro systems. Select models were made available on various Dell outlet channels for a limited time. The discontinuation of Vostro models was reportedly down to changing technology and demand in the corporate world. Subsequently, the Vostro was resurrected onto the market in early 2015.
