The rumor has come via Macworld.com.au, with the Aussies claiming a “well-placed source” has spied some SKUs with the product number “MC516LL/A K87 BETTER BTR-USA.” Why are we placing faith in this particular rumor, you ask? They’ve had a string of success with MacBook leaks, right up to the MacBook Pro releases just last month.

Perhaps not so thrilling is that Macworld.com.au has said if it’s not new MacBook Airs winging their way to Orrstraya at this very minute, it’s new LCDs for iMacs. Let’s hope that shortage in ULV Core i3 and i5 processors that we reported on in January has been cleared up by now. [Macworld via MacRumors]
