Hi !
I've been waiting for some time to buy a new Apple laptop as I currently own a 13" Black 2009 Macbook. I like the new retna MacBook Pro.
I need it to run CS6 but also FCP X. I also shoot high res timelapse and raw video so i need a large 1Tb internal drive.
It's the 1tb SSD that makes the top of the range 13" rMBP so expensive as they are another £400 in UK for just an extra 512Mb storage. The lower spec models won't allow for a 1Tb SSD and so this makes the model over £2069 from the Apple Store. A lot of money for a laptop.
When do you guys think a 1Tb SSD will be available for the lower spec models ? I'm not too worried about processor speed but need the extra internal storage space ?
Is it likely that in March the standard Macbook will be discontinued and the rMBP will start to come down in price ?
I would buy now but the 1tb SSD really is an expensive addition ...
Any advice is appreciated ! Thanks ...
