Five New MacBook Configurations for Tues, May 15th? [Updated]
Tuesday, May 15th is the most recent date-on-the-calendar for those awaiting Apple notebook updates. Questionable rumors posted last week indicated that we would see Apple laptop updates this week, while other rumors pointed to "sooner than expected" laptop updates.
Despite varying claims, the final word we've heard is that five (consumer) MacBook models are en route, but no other details are available.
Apple presently features 3 MacBook models ranging from $1099 - $1499 and last updated the MacBook in November 2006. Our Buyer's Guide reveals that the MacBook is approaching the end of its refresh cycle.
Update: Apple Store U.S. (U.K.) down for updates.
