Comment Re:Macbook Pro Retina $1699, not $3k (Score 1) 234

Only for the 13" model, which by all reports has the Intel HD4000 struggling to keep up

What reports? The integrated GPU in my Core 2 Duo handles my 3520x1200 frame buffer reasonably well on Linux. I find it hard to believe that 5 generations later Intel hasn't improved at all.

I can get a flash drive of the same capacity for about $20 right now, less if I buy in bulk.

Yes, but that flash drive will read at 20 MB/s second at best, write at 4 MB/s, and slow to a crawl under non-sequential writes due to its simplistic controller and lack of buffer memory. >Personal data kept on flash drives, I presume? Personal data kept on desktop, with a semester's worth synced with the EEE at any one time. SSHFS and Samba were also helpful.
