Front Office Football Central - Laptop Brand Reliability

Ran across this little nugget this past week. We have a lot of anecdotal evidence here at FOFC that one brand or another is better or worse when it comes to laptops.

Well, it turns out, like most anecdotal evidence, there's not much to it. They're all about the same.

Consumer Reports says a difference of less than three points is statistically "not meaningful."
