Apparently the MacBook1,1 reports the manufacturer as Apple Computer, Inc.

A patch was submitted here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/23/412

Steffen Röcker wasn't sure about the MacBook2,1 but according to sample
dmidecode outputs:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-acpi(a)vger.kernel.org/msg07914.html
and
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-acpi(a)vger.kernel.org/msg09304.html
for MacBook1,1 and MacBook2,1 systems respectively, MacBook2,1 reports
as Apple Inc. as in my original patch.

Sorry for not catching this earlier.

I don't understand, is this patch not correct? Should I drop it from
the stable release?

It is correct, but it will not match MacBook1,1s as intended due to
apple changing vendor names.

And by correct, I mean it would be correct if it only claimed to add
four MacBook variants instead of five.
