With fifth-generation Intel Core processors, the latest graphics, and faster flash storage, the incredibly advanced MacBook Pro with Retina display moves even further ahead in performance and battery life.* *Compared with the previous generation.
First time Mac/Apple user. I have been PC lifer and had always said I would NEVER jump ship to Apple. But after three weeks all I can say is WHAT AN AWESOME SYSTEM! I love how it only takes around 13 seconds from pushing power button to being able to work. PC took forever! I have always heard about how the Apple products were highly rated but was afraid of learning a new system. I already have the Office 365 for my PC so I did transfer that to my Mac as most places still use Office products. After these past few weeks I feel pretty confident about navigating through the system. There are still some areas which I am not 100% about, but I didn't learn PC overnight either. The flow of OS X is VERY SMOOTH and the magic pad has allowed me to go without a mouse which I always used. I am not sold on iCloud yet as I have 1TB of OneDrive space with Microsoft. I did download Google Chrome but have been using Safari navigator at length. I feel the change from PC to Mac has been pretty seamless. Now if I can get my wife to leave it alone! :) Might have to get her one now after she keeps taking mine! It is a little more expensive than a regular PC but compared to a Surface, they are really close in price. If you are on the fence on getting one, GET ONE! You will not be disappointed!
