    I just got one last week...cause I inadvertently gave my 09 a bath. It's good, the solid state disk speed things up and it seems to stay much cooler during intensive processes. I was a little surprised that I had to buy an external DVD and Ethernet adapter, really Apple could have tossed in an Ethernet adapter. The Retina display is only weird when switching between optimized and non-optimized sites / apps as it makes you adjust your eyes a bit but overall it's a big improvement.

    • for sure, I have CS4 Master Collection currently and it looks and works same as before. I don't have FCP but the iMovie update for Retina is fantasticspot13

    • I hear InDesign crashes Retina MBPs. They (Adobe or Apple) don't have a solution as of yet.monospaced
    • that could be, I don't use it very often but I can open files that our print designers send me and it's been much much more stable than my 2009 MBPspot13
