Congratulations, Poisonivy, I hope you enjoy your new MacBook Pro Retina as much as I did when I got mine last spring.

When yours arrives, don't forget to check for the free iWork and iLife apps.

Will do......The shop I'm buying it from is going to transfer all my stuff and wipe the old one ready for selling for a small fee, It will be ready to go when i get it home, I'm glad i don't have to do it.

Good choice! That's the same model I'm saving for.

I wonder if your old one could serve as a book reader or something. That's the pack rat in me talking

I ordered the 13" model with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, It hasn't arrived yet at the shop though, Supposed to be 4-7 days and its 7 days now, The Apple store have stock but i got a good deal with the authorised dealer, I'll see if it arrives tomorrow.

I hate knowing the arrival date, it makes time slow to a crawl, lol.

If it hasn't been dispatched to the store by tomorrow then they lost a sale, I'll make the journey to my nearest Apple store, they had stock up to last night.

you will love the speed of a SSD... so fast and gives you 5 second boot times which is great.

Wow 5 secs, Its hard to imagine one being even faster than this one

No still no sign of it, If they don't have it in for me by Wednesday i'll cancel and get one from elsewhere, I have used this shop before and usually they are reliable but not so this time.
