In the post that I quoted, you very strongly implied that the extra features on the MBPR are not worth the money if you don't do much photo or video editing. You compared it to driving a Porsche to do grocery shopping and you'd take it back if you could. Oh you know, since this was in a thread in which the OP is trying to decide whether to get it or not, the conclusion I got was that the OP shouldn't get it (yes, based on your experience with it). Once again, in THIS post, you said it wasn't worth it
I'm trying to say that the clarity of the screen alone can be worth it to me and other people if you do a lot of reading (even if no video editing is done.)
I know you were sharing your experience and your opinion that it wasn't worth it because you thought it was an overkill if one doesn't do much video editing. I'm disagreeing with your opinion and sharing that I think it's more than worth it if you do a lot of reading and document editing.
If you clearly read the sentence you're referencing, you'll notice this key piece of information which still leaves me baffled how you're disagreeing with my experience...
i personally won't get much use out of
...if i made any reference to the computer being ONLY good for graphic arts projects of some sort, i would understand your disagreement, but i never did, i simply pointed out my own personal usage experience and what i felt, it's hard to disagree with me explaining my own personal experience, that's like me going out to eat, saying i didn't care for the food and you coming back with "No, it's good."...sure, you get usage out of the retina display in a way that i don't use it, so our experience differs...I don't disagree that the computer would make for a fantastic reading environment with the clarity of the retina display, but i don't use it for that, so in my experience, that fact has no relevance, as true as it may be.
As far as implying...if you're going to point out one portion of my post and essentially stand in disagreement, be fair and go to the very beginning of it, where i said this...
And the retina display model could just knock your socks off.
...there i "imply" that it could be perfect for him/her. My point is that there's really nothing for you to disagree with here, because disagreeing with what i said in my post would mean that you felt i made an inaccurate comment, and i didn't, i made an experienced based opinion on the macbook pro with retina display, that it wasn't worth it to me, but could be perfect for someone else. There's nothing inaccurate about that statement, and is about as neutral to the device as one could be honestly while still properly expressing an opinion.
