Well, it turns out that is indeed the case. I successfully upgraded the CPU on a MacBook5,2 (Mid-2009) from its stock 2.13 GHz P7450 to a 2.53 GHz T9400 from a Late-2008 MacBookPro5,1 logic board. Both machines have the same chipset (nVidia MCP79).

Is there a CPU socket on a MacBook?

Yes, that’s right, a SOCKET… I’m serious. And yes… It actually works. The main reason I performed this modification was to allow for a way to easily test CPUs on a MacBook 5,2 logic board, without the need to solder the actual CPU. I found some PGA479 sockets on eBay, so I figured it could be done relatively easily.
