I had my reasons.. Upgradeability.. Retina resolution is too high for reading stuff on screen. I found HighRes to be more practical all-round. And even though it is SSD, is apple kidding with with a 256GB storage in a $2000+ laptop ??

Thanks for advice. I went with the standard MBP 15" option. Waiting for it to be shipped and wondering.. Apple Care.. yay or nay ??

Thanks for opinion on 13" MBP. My only concerns with Retina MBP are: - 256GB is not enough for triple boot OS configuration. - Upgradability, repairability are out of question. So if something goes wrong and I am not covered under warranty, the machine is no better than a fancy thin aluminium...

yups.. my local computer technician is charging 2500 for: 1. Buying the parts from Nehru Place, or from his own sources (at the best prices I gave after fishing on Nehru Place) 2. Assembling them and bringing it to my place. 3. Providing any kind of service, warranty replacements of...

Hi, Please suggest the best configuration. Below is the needed information: 1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et...

Thanks for replying. Visited one Service center of Sony. The technician was adamant that Vaio gives only 1 year warranty on laptop and all internals irrespective of Warranty of each internal devices. I am wondering if it is of any use to visit a Samsung service center and ask them for...
