I posted an earlier question about whether to buy an iMac or a rMBP and following the feedback received and a trip to the apple store to have a go on both I've decided to go for the rMBP.
I'm aware that the new MacBook Pro is likely to be released soon however as I am purchasing the Macbook through a work scheme which offers about a 40% saving I won't be able to get the new release. My real question is, how much will I actually be saving?
The model I am looking at currently retails at £2300 and I will end up paying about £1600 for it. This includes Microsoft Office, extended warranty to 3 years and some other additional software. I'm aware this only looks like a 30% saving but the additional cost of office and warranty make up the difference. Both of these things are important additions for me anyhow.
In your experience of previous updates, how much would the purchase price for the current rMPB drop by when the new version is released? Surely they won't just stop selling it immediately?
Thanks
Sebastian
