MacBook gets a stealthy update

I didn't even see the Apple Store go down, did you? Well, no matter: the MacBook has been updated. Its base specs are virtually identical to those from the Vietnamese leak a few days ago:

2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
2 GB RAM
250 GB 5400 RPM hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce 320M integrated graphics card

The one feature not consistent with the Vietnameseleak: the updatedMacBookhas gained the same 63.5 watt-hour battery as the 13" MacBook Pro, leading to up to 10 hours of "wireless productivity" according to Apple's estimates. The MacBook box from the Vietnamese leak showed the old 7-hour battery graphic, which led us to believe the battery might not have been updated.

The MacBook's price remains unchanged: US$999 for the base model.
