Lab tests prove that many Windows 7 laptops having a similar price offer better performance than the 2010 MacBook Air models, reports “PC World.”

“The numbers show that many Windows notebooks that carry a similar price tag outperform the 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Air models we tested,” the article says. “Other differences show up, too. Many of the better-performing Windows laptops are bigger and heavier than the Air, and some have poorer battery life. But if you’re interested in getting the most pop possible for your buck, it’s clear that the MacBook Air isn’t the best way to go.”
