Could Apple feasably put in a new processor based on the new Montevina chip and release it next week with or without an appearance change? Intel did this for the iMacs (not saying they would use the same processor because I know they don't) would they be able to do this with the Macbooks for the back to school thing? The only reason why I ask is because people say that there isn't going to be an update on the Macbook on the back to school launch but could it happen?
It is my understanding that Montevina is an architecture (ala Santa Rosa) or chipset, NOT a chip. The Montevina architecture will still use the current Penryn chips.
