MacBook Pro with Retina Display (and Pegasus R4)

My new MacBook Pro with Retina Display will henceforth be called simply the MPBr. The product itself is terrific, but why in the world did they give it such a long (really long) name? Anyway, here is a pic..

  I haven&#8217;t installed any of my software yet, so you&#8217;ll have to wait for full impressions of everything I use. The first thing I did was set the display to 1920&#215;1200, or what looks like 1920&#215;1200 on the MBPr&#8217;s 2880&#215;1800 display. I have to say that it looks great, and while some people might find the text a little small at this setting, I still have pretty good eyesight and I love (LOVE!) having the extra real estate on the screen. So, often when I am working on a project I feel like I need to hook up a second display just to see everything. Not so any more.

<p>
  Disclaimer: I&#8217;ll probably still use the second display sometimes.

  I&#8217;ve also got a Promise Pegasus R4 (4TB) to use with the new MBPr, so once I get that set up I&#8217;ll post some of my thoughts regarding it.
