I'd agree with that. I'm incredibly surprised they didn't make the Radeon 460 exclusive to the high-end 15". I didn't even realize it was an option on the low-end model until I already bought the 2.7 GHz model. Oh well, only $90 I guess.
Got a tip for us?

Out of interest, why did you upgrade the CPU but not the RAM? The RAM will have a much more significant effect
I just tried to cancel my order and was met with "we are unable to cancel your order at this time, an apple representative would be happy to assist you."
I guess ill give them a call and see if they can apply an education discount.
I really hope they will already delivrr the TouchBar MacBooks at the end of next week. i just reread an article about the jet black iPhone that was supposed to be delivered in November, but reached early buyers at the end of september.
Any of you guys have experience with situations like this? It's not like it really matters to Apple, the launch is in the same quarter anyway.
Can't wait!!

Identical order here. I'm glad I don't need a lot of storage space, because going from 512 GB to 1 TB would run an extra $400.
Also, my order says "Delivers: Nov 17 - Nov 25 by Standard Shipping".
Could you tell me why you didn't upgrade the processor? I'm curious because I can't make up my mind.
15-inch MacBook Pro - space grey
Had to cancel and reorder after forgetting the education discount the first time, but it didn't change my delivery date (although I'm cautiously hoping for an early delivery). This will ship just before my 2x cashback with Discover expires, so between that and educational pricing the cost isn't that bad. Upgrading from a base configuration mid-2013 13" MBA, which should translate to a very nice improvement.
- 2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
- Radeon Pro 460 with 4GB memory
- 1TB PCIe-based SSD
- 16GB 2133MHz memory

Q: is AppleCare+ cheaper when you buy it bundled with Mac? Or is it the same price as buying separately? Thanks.
Yea i cant decide either. Is .2GHZ really worth it? How would it benefit us?
Is it better for games or intense photoshop work?
