    Wow this was most unexpected...

    Never realized that Apple would do such a random update. I was just expecting the desktops to be revised.

    So they changed to a new batch of 2.66GHz chips? Or are they using the same chips, just a faster clock?

    I find this strange as well. Despite there is a "NEW" bubble above its display on the Applestore nothing seem to be different.

    That is true. But even the Macbooks have the 256gb SSD option but it does not have the "NEW" bubble on top of it. :eek:
