Comment Re:Macbook Retina a major success, not failure (Score 1) 424
Unfortunately the retina MBPs aren't straight upgrades from the non-retina ones. If you get one with a retina display you lose a few things.
Ports/peripherals:
Ethernet port
CD/DVD drive
Firewire port
Audio in
I believe the retina macs also don't let you add more RAM or upgrade/replace your HDD/SSD
