I'll stick with my lovely 760GB of RAID SSD storage that I can swap when I want, thankyou.
Sticking with '11 MBP.
Premium prices for a non-user-exchangeable, soldered setup is a slippery slope.

possibly
if I do, it'll be the 15" Retina MBP...want to see exactly how much of a hit my savings will take.

I was really hoping for a 13" redesign as well.
Now I have to do a bit of research to see what I want, and what will suit my needs.

I dont think the 15" retina is user upgradable. What a shame... If the 17" is announced with retina I will buy it..
The next gen Pro was basically what I had in mind. 15", slim, dedicated graphics, quad core processor, and 5+ hour battery.
Just trying to decide whether to go with the stock 8GB or upgrade to 16GB RAM. 512GB 'drive is a given.

In my opinion, if you plan to do lots of video editing or anything that requires heavy lifting, get 16GB.
Plus, it's great for future-proofing.
You don't have a "I'm still thinking about it since I don't blow thousands of dollars on a new computer without taking a few days to mull it over" option.
I'll be waiting for this as well. Guess I should pick a new hobby other than perusing rumor sites all day, could be awhile!

You are keeping your current Mac/PC, then!
Sure will. Anybody know when I can pick one up ASAP? Hopefully they'll have it in stores by the time I get off work.
Just saw the specs, looks like I must get the $2799 config to get the 512GB SSD
Not sure I can stomach the premium for the 16GB.Still have no idea how much the RAM u/g will cost...
The new slim 15inch has my eye, but it all depends on whether I can get it with a 500GB SSD for around £2000. Otherwise I will go for one of old design 15inch.
Edit: Might wait until I see the prices of the Ethernet and firewire adapters too, as knowing Apple, they will be $100 each.

the 15" retina display model is way overpriced, £1799 with only 256gb ssd? its not even configurable, to be honest this is way overpriced and I'm disappointed, the screen cannot possibly contribute to that price point? i mean everything is flash, but to me i don't see how this price point is properly marketed?
a more reasonable fee would have been £1399.

No, I'm not, because I am planning to buy something in the next few months. I'm just not sure what. Though I suppose you are correct as it is.
