Have never owned any Apple products before but I believe I will be getting an rMBP soon.
Brand new 13" MBP for $1499
2.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
8GB 1600MHz memory
256GB PCIe-based flash Storage
Intel Iris Graphics
Refurbished 15" MBP for $1499 (Early 2013)
8GB of 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
256GB Flash Storage
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory
Whichever one I choose I will be adding AppleCare. I have never purchased anything refurbished before, however I know there is a 14-day return period.
Right now I am leaning waaay towards the Refurb since I will be adding AppleCare. Just need some opinions, I know nothing about macs other than I love the touchpad.
Edit: I guess I should mention what I will be using it for. Primarily web development and Photoshop. May be doing some AutoCAD as well. I don't play games at all, prefer a console it's much cheaper and you don't have to upgrade every year to keep up with everyone else.
