Well, we were half right. This morning’s entirely expected Apple Store downtime was resolved just after 8:30am EST. When the site came back up, some nice goodies came up with it.

Updated MacBooks:

  • 2.1GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 1GB memory / 120GB hard drive / Combo drive: $1099
  • 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 2GB memory / 160GB hard drive / Double-layer SuperDrive: $1299
  • 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 2GB memory / 250GB hard drive / Double-layer SuperDrive: $1499

The lesser two options come in a white case, while the top MacBook comes in black. All models feature the 13" display and pack Intel’s new Core 2 Duo Penryn processors.

Updated MacBook Pros:

  • 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / 2GB memory / 200GB hard drive / 15" display: $1999
