As the question states:

Which Haswell rMBP (13in or 15in) if both had a discrete GPU?

I know the 13in does not have one and only the 15in does.. but if the 13 were to have a discrete GPU, would you be more inclined to get the 13in?

So basically you're asking 15MBP fans if they'd switch to a 13MBP if it had a dGPU?

You could have done this with a yes/no poll.
 
sorry but this is new to me. what is a Haswell am I missing out on something I just bought a 13''in Macbook pro 256gb w/retina display
 
13" laptops are the perfect size as far as i am concerned, anything bigger is just too big for your lap. But I want a discrete GPU in my next one so if the 15" has it and the 13" does't I'll get the 15" if neither does I'll try and get a refurb cheaper ivy bridge.

Haswell... next CPU from Intel... coming to MBP's... expected soon.

Your recent purchase is fine. You actually get to use a mac while others twiddle their thumbs and wait.
