New MacBooks! Wait, what? Today?
Now that's weird. Apple's having a new store opening Friday in New York, preceded by an invitation-only press event Thursday. But they went ahead and announced new MacBooks today, anyway. Deets: The 13-inch laptops replace the iBooks and are on sale now, starting at $1,099 and ranging up to a top-of-the-line 2GHz model (Intel Core Duo, of course) that comes only in black. Whoa, a black laptop, no way! That's so...oh, wait. Sort of like a ThinkPad. But come on, admit it, you want it. It's way shinier. In related shiny news, the MacBook Pro gets a processor upgrade and a glossy new display.
