TUAW reports that Apple has updated the packaging on several Macs after the debut of OS X Lion



The site's managing editor compared a Lion-running MacBook Pro and a Snow Leopard-running model he purchased earlier this year; other than the new machine running Lion, the two Macs had identical specs.

The most obvious change to the packaging is that rather than featuring Snow Leopard's aurora desktop background, images have been updated with the Andromeda Galaxy wallpaper that comes standard with OS X Lion. It turns out that part numbers and SKUs differ from the pre-Lion MacBook Pro as well, with the updated numbers likely reflecting the changes in OS, keyboard differences, and included supplemental material.
