Consumer Reports

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Related to the last post, I found a copy of the latest issue of Consumer Reports in the office and took a peek at their ratings. They rate a Gateway number 1, Toshiba 2nd, IBM 3rd and a Dell 4th, with the Dell being the “best buy” because it’s 400-600 dollars cheaper than the others. Pretty much follows what I’ve been hearing in the comments and what I was thinking, although the Gateway being top of the list surprised me a little.

Thanks to everyone who’s commented so far, and keep ’em coming! 🙂
