But those old systems presumably still exist somewhere out there, right ?

And if they still exist then we do still want to support them, so I'm
not sure why you think it is a good idea to drop this test ?

Adding the alienware match seems fine, dropping the URL match seems
like a bad idea unless you are 100% sure that there are no systems
out there which rely in this match to load dell-wmi-sysman.
