I see the price differences, BUT I have no idea which is better or why..example .
option 1
$1599
option 2
$1779
EDIT, even the video card is only 512 mbs.
to add a bit of confusion the NEW MBPs have Flash PCIe storage.
IS the SSD better than simple Flash storage with Flash PCIe being better than both?
are both of those options above "Ivy bridge"? ?????
