Learning the little things about Macs

Yeah, I just discovered when my Mac was built. I already knew where it was built (Tiawaan, I believe), but I've found that it was built during week 24 of this year, by looking at the serial number:

From System Profiler:

Hardware Overview:

Machine Name: MacBook
Machine Model: MacBook1,1
CPU Type: Intel Core Duo
Number Of Cores: 2
CPU Speed: 2 GHz
L2 Cache (shared): 2 MB
Memory: 768 MB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB11.005F.B00
Serial Number: 4H6246WFU9E
SMC Version: 1.4f10
Sudden Motion Sensor:
State: Enabled

See the Serial Number? The 4th and 5th numbers determine the build week.

Now, I have to track down any issues that all week 24 systems have had in recent months, but maybe I shouldn't be opening up Pandora's Box, eh?
