Apple MacBooks Top All Consumer Reports Laptop Categories!

If you were wondering how good Apple’s MacBook line of portable computers are, the answer is simple they are the top computer in every category on Consumer Reports. Apple’s 11-inch MacBook Air scored a 62 out of 100 taking the top spot in the small laptop section. Scoring a 56, Gateway came in second while HP came in third with a 49. “Now you can use Keynote, Pages and Numbers on iPhone and iPod touch to create amazing presentations, documents and spreadsheets right in the palm of your hand,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “The incredible Retina display, revolutionary Multi-Touch interface and our powerful software make it easy to create, edit, organize and share all of your documents from iPhone 4 or iPod touch.” The 13-inch model category was even worse for Apple’s competition. Apple’s 13-inch MacBook Pro took the top five of seven spots with Sony and Asus taking the final two. The 15-inch category was much closer with Apple MacBook Pro taking the top three spots, but the competition did come in at just three points behind. The 17-inch category was another big win for Apple. The MacBook Pro took the top two spots with the competition sharing the other six.
