Apple Thoughts: Consumer Reports Does Some Laptop Hunting, Too: Likes Apple Most

"In laptops, Apple MacBooks rated first in the 13-inch category, the 14-to 16-inch size, and the 17-inch list; Dell, Toshiba and Hewlett-Packard were also-rans. The 15-inch MacBook Pro was rated overall with a score of 75 out of 100, ahead of a 64-rated Toshiba Satellite (the Pro costs $2,000, the Toshiba $700). Among desktops, the Mac mini finished second to an H-P Pavillion Slimline, and the iMac placed second behind a Dell XPS One. CR surveyed its readers about computer tech support. Apple trounced the field in both desktop and laptop categories."

Well, I'd call that a sound trouncing. Not that I'm surprised. Dell's support is bad, and Toshiba's so far beyond bad that it can't even see the light from bad within 3000 years.

Now who's gonna break the news to all those "laptop hunters?"
