MacBook Receives Performance Bump

  Almost exactly a year after its initial release (see "MacBook Fills
  Out Laptop Line," 2006-05-22) and six months after the last
  processor jump ("MacBook Gains Core 2 Duo Processor," 2006-11-13),
  Apple has updated the MacBook line of laptops with faster Intel Core
  2 Duo processors that add roughly .16 GHz to each model, a standard
  1 GB of RAM across the line, and larger hard disks. Prices remain
  the same, but the stock choices now include a white 2.0 GHz model
  with an 80 GB hard disk for $1,100, a 2.16 GHz model with a 120 GB
  hard disk for $1,300, and the black 2.16 GHz model with a 160 GB
  hard disk for $1,500. Apple is also now advertising the MacBook as
  supporting 802.11n, which presumably means that the 802.11n enabler
  is no longer necessary.
