Apple Releases New Penryn Based MacBooks

Featuring a gorgeous 13-inch glossy widescreen display, and with prices still starting at just $1,099, the new MacBook lineup comes in three models and includes faster processors and larger hard drives across the line; sleek white 2.1 GHz and 2.4 GHz models with 120GB or 160GB 5400 rpm hard drives and a stunning black 2.4 GHz model with a massive 250GB 5400 rpm hard drive, previously only available as an option. The 2.4 GHz MacBook models ship with 2GB of memory standard, expandable up to 4GB across the line.

Very nice. Surprised they came at the same time as the MBP, and now it is really just the graphics card that is separating them.

No multitouch and still has a combo drive in the base version. I won't bitch and moan since this thing wasn't supposed to be updated anyway...

I'll be ordering myself a Blackbook once my WhiteBook Sells! Specs are very comparable to MBP minus the Graphics Chipset.

and the backlit keyboard, multi-touch and speed. Seems like they increased the gap between, no lessened it.
