10:42 AAPL Apple Computer to ship 300,000 MacBooks this month, according to paper - AppleInsider (92.41 +0.60) -Update-

AppleInsider reports according to the Chinese-language Commercial Times, Apple's build orders the 13-inch notebooks to Taiwanese manufacturing partner Asustek Computer are expected to rebound to 300,000 units this month. By shipping similar quantities of MacBooks in December, it's almost assured that Apple will handily eclipse the 1 mln milestone for notebook shipments during its current quarter after sales of its professional MacBook Pro systems are factored into the mix.

In August, AppleInsider cited insiders as saying the Mac maker was tracking for shipments of 1 mln notebooks systems during its December quarter. The latest MacBook tallies also suggest the Street's current forecast for total Mac unit shipments during the quarter could once again prove to be conservative. On average, analysts have been modeling Apple to sell between 1.6 mln and 1.8 mln during the three-month period ending December.
