Following an investigation of a complaint by Dell, NAD, the National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus, said Apple was “unique†in having chosen only to produce laptops that meet the highest EPEAT environmental standards.
“While other manufacturers may have subcategories of lines with similar ratings, none has comparable high ratings for all of the notebooks it produces,†NAD said.
However Apple was asked to remove the the reference to “world’s greenest†given the potential for overstatement. NAD noted that some individual Toshiba Portage notebooks have a higher EPEAT rating than MacBooks.
