It’s one thing to see the new MacBook Pro with Retina display behind thick, protective glass. It’s another to see it up close and personal, where you can actually get a feel for the weight and thinness of the device. The laptop we’re using is a 2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 with a 3.6GHz Turbo Boost, Nvidia GeForce GT 650M graphics, 8GB DDR3L SDRAM, a massive 512GB of flash storage, and of course, the 15.4-inch 2880 x 1800 Retina display — no more turning down settings to play Diablo 3. Like the MacBook Air, the power button has been moved in line with the keyboard. It otherwise matches the layout of the “traditional” 15-inch MacBook Pro, with speaker grills along each side and a large trackpad in the middle. The new MagSafe adapter is indeed thinner — the current one looks to be just a hair too thick for the side panel. Screen is, alas, highly reflective but incredibly crisp and bright.
