  • Tidbits from Apple System profiler:

  • 12,820 mAh capacity. Yes, that's 12.8 AMP HOURS. Let's hope it actually lasts the 1,000 discharge cycles that Apple claims.

  • Our battery already had 3 cycles on it! I wonder if the famous factory girl tested ours.

  • A 2 GB DDR3 1067 MHz RAM chip is installed in each slot, as expected.

  • The hard drive is a 320 GB Hitachi HTS543232L95A02 SATA drive using the NVIDIA MCP79 AHCI controller.

  • The model that we bought has the 'low-end', 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 6MB on-chip shared L2 cache.
