When you compare or go side by side with the previous gen MBP, the RMBP feels like an Air.

Gorgeous thing. Screen and speed blows me away. Still quite hefty, but damn.
Just wondering if you know the stock level for Sherway before you left?

We appear to have a number coming in unexpectedly tomorrow with 16 gigs and one with 8 unspoken for - trades welcome.
Mostly 2.6
Pleasant surprise for clients and us to get them this week.
Have not played extensively but this will be a very good screen for anyone with eye sight issues. Scales very well.
