Following the appearance of 15-inch models of the latest Retina MacBook Pro in Apple's online store for refurbished items over the weekend, 13-inch models have now debuted in the store, again offering discounts of roughly 15% compared to brand-new units. While a number of different configurations were available when the 13-inch machines first appeared late yesterday, Apple is currently listing only two of the three stock configurations as available with shipping estimates of 1-5 business days.

- 2.4 GHz dual-core Intel i5 with 4 GB RAM and 128 GB flash storage: $1099 ($200 savings)

- 2.6 GHz dual-core Intel i5 with 8 GB RAM and 512 GB flash storage: $1529 ($270 savings)

The third stock configuration, a 2.4 GHz model with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage, is listed as out of stock but will be priced at $1269, a $230 savings.

Pretty good deal considering not too long ago, the 13" rMBP was thicker, had relatively weak graphics and started at $1,699.

Pretty sure the answer is no but if you are a student or teacher can you still get the education discount on these?

Nope

Hmm, just got my W2 tax form to file for my tax return too.. Have I decided to spend it already?? :confused:

Before MacBooks went retina, and maybe before thunderbolt, there were some pretty great and reasonably priced docks available that allowed for the MacBook to be docked and have it connect to a monitor, speakers, external hard drives, etc.
Can anyone recommend any good ones for the retina 13" or 15" model?

I see thunderbolt docks priced at $300+, but I remember these other docks being much more affordable.

I really hope this is the last year that Apple offers 4GB RAM in a base model MBP.
