QUOTE(iVW @ Nov 1 2013, 09:55 PM) what's the diff between rmbp Previous model RM 3,999 2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz 8GB 1600MHz memory 128GB Flash Storage Intel HD Graphics 4000 Current model 2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz 4GB 1600MHz memory 128GB PCIe-based flash storage Intel Iris Graphics and the capacity of RAM is greater on previous model?  Ivy Bridge vs Haswell processors. Haswell is a lower in energy consumption, hence greater battery life and also bare in mind, all Apple products in malaysia had a price hike due to weak MYR vs USD

Even my 2012 MBA is able to handle PS and AE quite smoothly. Therefore, I think rMBP will not have any major problems when running those two softwares that you just mentioned.

Aiya, new item as usual will take care more... probably toss the cover away after few months  QUOTE(Pro3363 @ Nov 4 2013, 06:10 PM) Jealous  Congrats bro  Did u order the one that comes with 750m GPU?  that model out of my budget. Main reason I'm getting the rMBP is IPS screen! *oh the Apple logo is cool too haha!* No other windows based notebook coming to close to the rMBP unfortunately. I got the basic 15" rMBP.
