It appears as though Consumer Reports isn't necessarily the most expert unbiased source of hardware reviews that they claim to be...

Recently, we wrote an article about the Mac tax and how ridiculous some ridiculous statements had been made by the media in regards to the cost of Macs versus PCs. Today, we come against another form of media claiming that Macs are indeed better than PCs. This time, though, the bias is blatantly shown by what was once considered a respectable measure of product quality and value, Consumer Reports.

It had been brought to my attention by a blogger on laptopmag.com by the name of Dana Wollman. The blogger specifically responds to a claim by AppleInsider that MacBooks swept the latest Consumer Report scores. Unfortunately for AppleInsider all they do is cheer about the huge point differences between the Macs that won each category and the PC laptops that they had “steamrolled”. The blogger does point out a few noticeable discrepancies in the Consumer Reports claims that they are looking for Performance, Ergonomics, Features and Display. Since we cannot actually view how the scores were tabulated since it requires a subscription to even view, we’ll have to take the word of AppleInsider on those numbers.
