I know that fans love {put anything here} to death. But Apple fans really have to admit that Apple can be one hell of an annoying kid sometimes. You know that kid in class, who tells you how he/she found this wonderful secret place and how it is so awesome and everything. They will even show you pictures of it but refuse to tell you where it is? Apple is just like that.

They just updated their MacBook and MacBook Pro today. Being one of those guys who follow processor technology closely, I was interested if they shifted to Intel’s new Penryn line. Now I simple Core 2 Duo T8100 would have sufficed in their detailed specs but instead Apple decides it wants to tell you that it uses a 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo. Which could be a T7700 or the new T8300.

To figure out which one it is I had to depend on the L2 cache size since that was the only extra information I could find on the stupid Apple.com. So using that now I can tell that the base MacBook comes with a T8100 and the upgraded one sports the T8300. But why do I have to rely on that? Seriously? Why can’t they say that the MacBook Pro can now be upgraded to the T9300?
