Apple didn't send out a press release or anything to announce this, but the old school, $999 white MacBook has received a beefier processor (2.13 GHz compared to 2 GHz), slightly faster RAM (by 133 MHz), and a little bit of extra storage (160 GB vs. 120 GB). It's still $999, and the updated version is available for sale right this minute.
