This is a discussion thread for the "MacBook Pro with Retina Display Now Shipping in Under One Week" story posted on the front page.
Thats convenient...compared to two to three years, I mean...weeks. it sure seems longer when you order something.
I don't see all the hype. I used this at the Apple store and the screen wasn't a huge difference unless I really look at it close. Also web pages looked like sh*t and the world just isn't ready for this resolution yet. There was also considerable lag and graphic glitches, maybe something was wrong with the floor sample. Anyways the Retina effect will soon become normal after using it just like the iPhone. And regular displays will look like sh*t to your eyes.
After seeing it I already hate my mom's HPdv7... And my brother's gaming laptop with an HD screen (whatever that is). And and and...
I'll confirm this (even though it wasn't needed haha). After using mine for hours and hours, when I go back to my old laptop I can instantly tell it's nowhere close to the Retina.
