Fastest Vista notebook is a Mac
Smugly goes where no Mac has been before

PCWORLD has named Apple's MacBook Pro as the fastest Vista notebook in the world.
The magazine said that the $2419 lappy knocked the spots off any Dells, Toshibas, and Alienwares that were out there. Its closest rival was the Gateway's E-265M which it beat by a single point.

They are equipped with a 2.4-GHz Core 2 Duo T7700 processor, the maximum 4GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, and nVidia's GeForce 8600M GT.

Reviewers saw the beast break speed records. When running Vista Home Premium it managed a frame rate of 141 frames per second in Far Cry, with antialiasing turned off.

Not bad. PC World thinks now that Apple machines do not care what operating system they are running they are shaping up to turn into jolly nice Windows machines.
