Overview
The next-generation MacBook Pro with Retina Display – it’s a mouthful of a name. Apple’s latest notebook represents the culmination of a number of trends from one of the industry’s most visible players – from unibody aluminum construction to soldered-in components; from solid-state storage to the much-vaunted Retina Display.
Apple clearly has a vision for where they want to take portable computing, and while impressive, it has its drawbacks, too. Let’s jump into things by taking a look at the MacBook Pro’s most talked about feature: its stunningly high resolution display.
