A "12v" solar panel typically has an open-circuit voltage around 22v, which is probably fine, but I don't know how Macs are made. You might want to exercise it a little with a benchtop PSU and some instrumentation first.

I wonder if any laptop power-input circuits are agile enough to perform MPPT and extract a bit more juice out of a panel thus provided...
