• Y'see, I use a million ports.. No SD?! Complete write off for me. What's so portable about carrying adaptors everywhere? :(

    Is a retina screen worth £300 more?
    Especially in a machine that is comparable (or a little inferior, when utilising the graphics under the weight of said screen) in performance to a mid level machine from 2014?

    You're paying for the R&D with this generation of the macbook. I'd wait a gen and use an older machine in the mean-time. (unless I was loaded obvs then i'd buy both and use one as a chopping board)

  • Yeah hear what you are saying, funny you use so many ports and I use near none! Horses for courses and all that.
    I did forget I swore I'd never by a 1st gen apple product too, for the exact reasons mentioned. 2nd revision will be 1.2ghz base and start at £999 or something.
    Now, resisting a retina iMac is a much harder task, even at 1st gen.

  • I can give you 1 good example why not to go for a 1 gen 5k iMac - they overheat... we have a few at work and while they are nice, in fact very nice to use, they overheat... had to set 1 back and it looks like the 2nd one is heading the same way. It could just be a bad batch though.
