My Eyes Are Clearer than Ever!

I just picked up my brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina last night. I am not usually wowed by technology, but this is definitely a opportunity for me to say...

WOW!


This computer is not only faster than anything I have ever used (including the desktops that Carson and I just built from scratch), but the screen has left me thinking that all the other screens I have in life (TV, iPad, Samsung Phone, Monitors) are a little bit blurry. 5 Million pixels will do that!

Here are the specs of the bad boy:


  • 2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
  • Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
  • 8GB 1600MHz memory
  • 512GB flash storage
  • Intel HD Graphics 4000
  • NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory
  • Built-in battery (7 hours)
It is also thin, REAL thing. It is almost like carrying around an older version of the iPad. Here is a picture I just took of my holding it up against my iPad 2.



Anyways, if anyone is interested in a portable supercomputer, this is your option. They are quite expensive (almost $3,000) but I am in awe of the performance and it takes a lot to get me excited about the hardware side of computing! :)

I want one of those!!!

Yeah, so far so good.

I didn't know the pro was almost as thin as the air macs.
Really great, but a bit expensive.

Yeah, I was surprised too. Amazing the hardware they can fit in such a small amount of space these days.

You pay for 'em but it really is great technology. Enjoy!

Most definitely...and if it has an Apple logo on it, they can charge you a little more (well for now anyways).

Super! Maybe Wealthy Affiliate could have a little contest just before Christmas and one lucky Wealthy Affiliate will have a nice Christmas present.

That is a good idea...I am drumming up some ideas for this right now :)

Nice!

Very nice, Please send all your old electronics over to Ottawa

Oh I wish I thought of that .. lol

Sounds good. Do you accept old blackberry phones?

and of course, the price will eventually come down. Wonder what will surpass it?

yum yum ...me want one.
WELL I say that BUT never really found the "free cash" to try something ( a mac) that I really NEED to use on a daily basis and may be never get on with!

Spanking £1000 or more on a laptop with the kids burning holes in shoes and jeans almost like clock work seems not quite right ... yet.. Give me another 12 months of focus and we'll see!

Yeah, there are definitely much more affordable options out there. Macs are expensive, but they are well refined computing machines. It was time for an upgrade, my old Macbook was getting clunky.

Hmm - now I am incredibly envious. (Ha Ha). Hope it continues to live up to your expectations. It looks a beautiful beast and a nice present to be able to reward yourself with. I just like it from the look of the box!

Yeah, their design starts with the packaging that is for sure. It has made me want to work from my laptop!

in a word... DROOL!

Oh ya, I forget to mention the new Macbook Droolproof keyboard.
