for the macbookpro RD price affordable to puchase MacPro quad-core desktop, what's make you think to puchase notebook over desktop?

is it possible mac book pro 13 retina come out this october

and what is expected price? 5k?

maybe the all new the generation of macbook pro will have the retina display (13" and 15"). but it'll come in stages. just like how they released the first gen of macbook aluminum and the white macbook was still in production for a period of time before they discontinued it.

Flimsy? I think its design to make it easily come off when you trip the magsafe...

My order status and spec

well if they wan reduce the size like the 15in, so probably add 1k to current base price

since it will be ssd as well

Its slightly easier to be detach with Magsafe2 design due to its design to plug straight instead of the L shape.
Actually, I prefer this way.   Safer..

do u guys think it's good to buy from senq for 2 yrs warranty?

Ok, thanks for clarification....

Looking forward to owning my first Macbook Pro. Still undecided whether to go for Retina Display or not.

Will wait until Machines have display units to test it out.

Too bad Penang don't have Machines...
SWITCH only have the standard size RMBP in stock but they said don't have enough stock for display... wtf..

Yup, went to see the display and sealed the deal for me

yup, as stated by Machines fb page, all their outlets have retina for display.

slimness is one thing - it's almost impossible to fit an ethernet port on the current thickness of the MBP Retina

the other main thing is weight. optical drives aren't light, and to keep the weight down to an amazing 2kg, Apple just had to remove it.

basically weight is the MAIN reason i ordered the MBP Retina to replace my 2011 MBP 15".

...will apple be earlier?

Guys ! he is the 1 buying retina macbook pro at applestore online and received ! cool to the max !!!
the 3 - 4 weeks is not accurate lol

yeah.. he said 6 days before means is around 14 - 15 of june... which is also same date like me when i order

I actually placed my order around 15 minutes after apple store malaysia reopened. Around 1 hour after the product is launched (4am if I'm not wrong).

Retina MBP.

All the way from Shanghai. Guess it is a Asia hub for asia purchases. So literally you guys are fighting with everyone in Asia to get the RMBP. Not just Malaysian.

My friend ordered in the morning (around 10am). The delivery time changed to 2 - 3 weeks.

Subsequently, it drops again to 3 - 4 weeks. With more reviews are popping up on the internet. More people will be flocking to get their RMBP. As this is a new product, people dare not put in big chuck of money at one go before any reliable review.

Overall, this is a extremely good product. I'm not comparing it to PC. By just comparing it to the non retina MBP, you will see huge differences.

I received my shipment on Monday 2pm. If you are eager to get it, track the shipment every now and then after you got the airway bill number. Go to DHL @ Subang Cargo Terminal and collect it. It will be faster that way.

The delivery is very fast. Once your RMBP leaves the warehouse, you will need 3-4 days only to reach Malaysia. The problem lies in the warehouse. No stock I guess. The amount of RMBP is kinda limited right now. Goto GeekBench, there is less than 1000 RMBP been tested worldwide.
