Prepare for nerdgasm: New Macbook Pro’s with Retina Display and thin design

Very sexy but the downside is that I don’t know if it will be possible to add additional storage. Apple places the flash storage right on the board so unless you do BTO, I think your out of luck for upgrading anything after you’ve bought it.

And mountain Lion next month .. whoooo, some pretty spectacular features in there.

Not really to fused about the new MBP as not enough for me to upgrade as mine is only 8 months old.

But looking forward to mountain lion

Ssoooo amped! Watching twit.tv live coverage :slight_smile:

what’s the resolution?

2880x1800 … you can edit a 1080p movie

… while the movie at full resolution is windowed - thats how big :stuck_out_tongue:

Macbook Pro: 2880x1800 (Retina)
Macbook Air: still 1440x900 (No Retina)

Macbook Pro: Optical drive has gone as far as I interpreted the photo of the macbook pro interior…:relaxed:

+It’s very expensive: Prices starting at 2199$

finally we are moving forward with LCD resolution (again) and not more of this 1080p garbage. I hope others follow.

New mac book airs look nice as well - was hoping they would get a retina screen but maybe next year.

check it out www.apple.com looks pretty dam fine

shipping already i think

Yes, indeed!

Trying so hard not to run out a buy one.

and 4gig minimum ram (at last!!!)

The retina display is only on the 15 inch tho and is £1,799. A bit tooo pricey

Apple’s pricing policy in Europe is pretty ridiculous. $2199 = €2279 = £1799? Come on.

So disappointed at this MBP revision.

There is again only 2 USB ports and no ethernet!! And no CD Drive!?!

NO ETHERNET?!?! That means you need a thunderbolt to Ethernet adaptor? great, “the most portable and power full laptop” - ermm now needs a load of accessories too! and a USB CD Drive.

really poor. Love the new display, and the all flash approach and termal design looks brilliant, but the lack of IO is a complete load of rubbish, especially at the price.

I’m all for moving forward and love Apples new features. But gotta agree with 00DJC.

No Ethernet or CD Drive.. I was already aware this was happening but damn.

I love how they now call ethernet “legacy”. Until they can provide reliable gigabit wireless it’s hardly legacy.

Lack of I/O is an annoyance. Having to buy a Legacy ethernet port, less then awesome. I’ll keep upgrading my 2010 MBP for now. Thanks, but no thanks Apple

Thing is - even if there was a wirless gigabit standard out and working, the ability to just plug in is priceless in so many ways, like security for instance. Not to mention there are places where there is only a wired network, like offices.

Specifically to this community as well, pioneer’s pro-dj link works through an Ethernet link, so without an adaptor, this laptop out of the question for pioneer CDJ users relying on the ease of using rekordbox right from their laptop
