I agree. I would like to own 3 Mac laptops in 3 different sizes. There is just something so special about Apple.

I could have sworn reading an article that Asian market prefer a 14 inch.
I can see this. Almost every corporate laptops that we sell to clients has a 14.1" screen. 15" laptops come across as gigantic and while 13" laptops are becoming more popular, many people think they're too small. However, 13.3" is really not that much different than 14.1". I've always preferred the 13". That's why I got one.
And of course, each screen size will have totally different hardware specs (CPU, GPU, soldered vs. free RAM, etc.) to make things even more confusing
Why don't they start with giving you an eyesight check (to determine the smallest pixel you can see) and offer a whole range of different retina displays

And only offer certain specced hardware per. I.e.: If you want a dedicated GPU, you can't have a SSD, etc.
But then you're missing out on all the ones before it: 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 inch screen sizes.
2" iWatch
4" iPod Nano
6" iPhone & iPod Touch
8" iPad Mini
10" iPad
IT WORKS. IT REALLY WORKS.
no, they prefer smaller laptops, the US and some other western countries prefer the 14
it doesnt make sense.
You know, it's funny. I had a cMBP 15" before I got my new 13" rMBP and I must say, without the "chunkiness" of the cMBP body and the Retina screen, the 13" just FEELS bigger than it actually is. Can anyone identify with that? I thought I would hate it, but the crispness and slight bezel changes make the screen real estate seem much larger than a normal 13.
yes really, its a blotched job who came up with that, have you noticed what are the top of the line machines in the asian market? 13".
Have you noticed the product line up of those asian companies in the asian market? 13 primarily, 14 secondarily...
Sony flagship? z13, unfortunately dead, replacement s13
Lenovo, thinkpad edge e320 and other 13'' models, with the x230 being their most seller there
Fujitsu, nec and so forth focus more on 13 and lower with few models at 14 and 15
14 is something that US likes and some european markets
