Why are so many B2B websites… boring?

I’ve worked with several website designs and website redesigns over the years, and one thing that always strikes me about B2B sites is how much they all look the same. With a few exceptions, you’ll most often find a polished, sterile, brochure-like presence which is sure to appease the discerning B2B buyer. But is this what is really needed? Why do B2B websites follow a similar pattern, and are there opportunities to break the mould and still be successful?
