Highly likely. They had 15 of each stock model plus ultimate models last night. I was their first haswell rmbp buyer 🙂.
Got a tip for us?

I walked into an Apple store yesterday. They had both the 2.3/16/512 and the 2.6/16/1T in stock. I wanted 2.6/16/512, but settled for the lower clock speed and $ savings.

Im just curious how things work - Is it easy to transfer all/most of the data from your old MBP to the new one? I've never done this before so i'd like to know if someone here who used programs such as Logic Pro and Photoshop if it's possible to transfer data straight away without any harm? I would like to continue with most of my work on my new one 😛

If you just want to make your new MBP like your old, attach an external drive, and make a complete time machine backup. Then put it on your new MBP and restore from that time machine. Then your new rMBP will be 1:1 the same as the old 🙂

Ah to bad I don't have any external drive laying around 🙁
Honestly I only want Logic Pro with all my VST's/Sounds to my new MBP..I guess i'll need to find an external drive for that. Thanks!

Cool. Yeah it is a bit sad, but many of us will make a reappearance in the Broadwell thread soon enough.

A question for all of you: my gfs mbp (as mentioned) is getting replaced. On tuesday we closed the deal: 2.4Ghz, 16GB RAM, 768GB SSD. Just nos I got a call: she could now get the 2.6GHz Iris Pro only version with 16GB but only 512GB SSD. What would you say she should take? (The new one is cheaper if you compare Apples ow. Prices, but how about real Resell value etc - iGPU is powerfull enough for her).
Short: which is the better deal?
Edit: if it's not clear: the 2.4 one is ealry 2013

No offence, but could you word that a bit better? 13" or 15"? If she prefers the form factor of the 13", then take it. How long is she going to keep it? If she's one of those people who upgrade every year, then you might get some more money for it. Which one is the newer one? Can you just make your question a bit clearer?
Just a shipping update. Ordered base 750m on Tuesday 30min after keynote. As of last night order said (Processing Estimated 10/29) until this morning. I got a shipped email for delivery tomorrow 10/25!
There is hope for us!

Nice!

Will someone please test out the 13" rmbp's graphics a bit. I want to see how it fairs in normal situations.
I'm going for the same - 2.3/16/512 - and started to order it online the day of the keynote, but saw that even though it would ship within 24 hours, estimated delivery was 1 week away, on the 29th!
Screw that, I'm going to the Apple store today provided they have them in.
Those of you who has an apple store close by, can you please tell us others what models they stock?
I called Täby in Sweden and they told me that they will only stock the base models, but the geniuses does not know much here and they did not yet recieve it...
I would think that they stock the following (based on earlier stocking):
13/2.4/4/128
13/2.4/8/256
13/2.6/8/512
13/2.8/16/1TB (or maybe 512GB)
15/2.0/8/256/Iris
15/2.3/16/512/750m
15/2.6/16/1TB/750m

Sorry, I didn't realise that there is now both a 13" and 15" 2.6Ghz version. It's the 15" (quadcore) version. And she keeps her notebooks until they die. 750M is out of question as it's early 2013 (2.4/16/768) vs late 2013 (2.6/1/16/512).
Surprised that Apple doesn't have all of these different configurations all ready to go, at least for launch. I upgraded my processor to the fastest and I'm still processing as well. All though I find taking a deep breath and relaxing makes the anxiousness go away waiting for this 🙂
I've waited probably over a year to get a new laptop, I can wait another week or so

That's good information..oh well i'm waiting on mine being delivered. Could've had it today if I went there 🙁
Is there a notable difference between 2.0 vs 2.3?
I have a BTO right now 2.3/16/256 but thinking about cancelling that and just going for the base 2.0/8/256...will I regret this?

You're MUCH more likely to regret the 8GB ram down the line than you are the 2.0 processor.
