did anybody notice that apple also upgraded the dvd burner in the latest macbook? it now has +/- DL capabilities. Previously it was only + DL. It also comes with a black microfibre cloth to clean the screen! I sold my 3 day old macbook on ebay and purchased the updated model which came in today. I think i made the right choice even though i lost about $100 on the deal after ebay fees were accounted for. I have 4gb of ram in it.
 
Are you sure? I have a Rev B and I thought it did... So I checked on Mac Guides. And they agree with me.

Rev D - 8x double-layer SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
Rev B - 6x double-layer SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)

Other than being 2X faster writing to DL, they both look to do ±.
