PC World crowns MacBook Pro the fastest Vista laptop

MacBook Pro We love our brothers and sisters over at PC World. They may claim to be a PC based magazine, but we know that deep down, they’re all really Mac fans and infinitely jealous of us. Case in point, they’ve proclaimed the MacBook Pro the fastest Vista laptop.

The fastest Windows Vista notebook we’ve tested this year is a Mac. Try that again: The fastest Windows Vista notebook we’ve tested this year—or for that matter, ever—is a Mac… the MacBook’s score is far more impressive simply because Apple couldn’t care less whether you run Windows.

Darn tootin! This fact can’t be driven home hard enough. More Macs than ever are being sold now that Windows can be run natively or in virtualization. It’s a great safety net and a quick way to get access to Windows only games.

Nice to see Apple come out on top now that they're able to do the "Apples to Apples" comparison.

To paraphrase Will Hunting:

Will: Do you like Apples?
PC User: ...yeah...
Will: Well, the MacBook is the fastest Windows laptop. How do you like them Apples?!

Anything you can run,
We can run faster,
We can run anything
Faster than you.
