This thread is for those of us who around this time last year were going crazy waiting for Apple to announce the late-2013 rMBP! I know I personally was going insane as a college student with a temperamental mid-2009 MBP. So, are you glad you waited all those months? For those of you who ended the wait, are you satisfied with your purchase almost a year later? For those still waiting for Broadwell, how's that going for you?

Personally I'm very happy with my late-2013 rMBP. I got the mid-range 13" with 8gb of RAM and the 256gb SSD. It's perfect for writing papers and watching Netflix :) Of course somehow my 09 didn't get the memo that it's been retired, and a battery replacement has given it another lease on life. It's very happy as a media storage machine and Yosemite Public Beta tester.

Humor me :) I partially came over here to escape the "why don't you like the bigger iPhone?!?!?" people. It's a little crazy over there right now :rolleyes:
 
Oh man, simpler times! The last time I bought a MBP. The configuration anxiety was way less but given that I earned like half what I do now I should have been much more concerned about dropping £2k on a laptop back then.
