Much respect for still using PPC products today. They're not exactly getting much love from Apple or even third parties for that matter, yet somehow you're still capable of using them as day-to-day machines. Suddenly I feel guilty for finally trading in my 2006 MBP for a rMBP.
How's the glare? I saw one in-store, and it looked better than a regular MBP, but still not brilliant if I'm honest. How is it in real-world situations? Taken it outside yet?
Either way, can't wait to get mine. But I have to wait for the in-store pickup option to become available for non-obvious reasons. So probably a month or so
It is brilliant. Chrome updated their software to a beta version which is prefect for the Retina Display. Crystal Clear!
I don't use it outside so haven't really had that issue. But using it right now with a light on behind me and can't see a bit of glare.
No buyers regret.
Mine's changed a little lately.
There's an iMac in there somewhere.
how much money do you spend on the crap ?
Surprisingly little. I'm a cheapskate.
I don't think I paid full price for anything in this room. The desk was $150 delivered. The iMac was a freebie from Apple. The old Luxo lamp was $75...The Terminator skull and the Cyberman head cost a bit, but they were still not retail price and they're worth twice what I paid for them.
I think I'm ahead of the game.
And it's not like I bought this all yesterday. This is years worth of "crap".
My Mac setup, now featuring 2011 Mac Mini.
(Oh and am back to using my Apple Extended Keyboard. That black one was for the PC I had set up.)

I can never find the iMac because I get distracted by the Dr. Who stuff.

I made the Parker replica myself. Much cheaper and authentic than buying a crap copy.
Is that a monitor, tablet or wacom ?
That's a Wacom Cintiq 21UX. You can use it as a regular monitor as well.
Finally came around to post my setup =D

The Matchbox logo behind your iMac and the Parker figure has brought back many mighty fine memories!
