Macbook Pro or Macbook Pro Retina
Alright so I've saved up enough.
Would like to hear which one I should get.
I'm leaning towards the Retina because of the flash memory and the immensely pixel dense screen.
Completely realistic photo display, anyone?

I want to use it for Photoshop, Illustrator, inDesign and Guild Wars II.

Should I get the 15.4" Macbook Pro Retina:

2.3 GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600-MHz DDR3L
256 GB Flash
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDEA GeForce GT650M 1 GB GDDR-5
2880 x 1800 @ 220 DPI

Or the old 15.4" Macbook Pro:

2.6 GHz quad-core Intel i7
8 GB 1600-Mhz DDR3
5400-rpm 750 GB
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDEA GeForce GT650M 1 GB GDDR-5
1440 x 900 @ 110 DPI

IT HAS ARRIVED!

Oh god, the intensity!
I've bought the 15.4" Macbook Pro Retina and I've got to tell you it's amazing!
The speed baffles me every time, it's almost too fast for my eyes.
Everything looks so crisp as well, I went and looked up some photos from a previous vacation and it looked like I was back there again.
You simply cannot see that it is an image on the computer..

It's SEXY!

Nice!

It always confused me that Apple are the only ones really making high res displays. Everyone else is stick on 1080p, they don't seem to realize that even my 10 year old monitors are 1080p...
