Not sure if you know me, but I'm mainly on WPCentral. I own a NL920 and a Surface Pro 2, and have been an Apple user before. Since I need Mac OS for many programs, like XCode, I'm switching back to Mac. I still have my old Mac, the 2010 MBP, and still runs great, but I need to upgrade. I was thinking of getting the 13" Retina now, because it was just refreshed, but I'm not sure if I should wait for Broadwell. I want to get it with 3.0GHz Dual-core Intel Core i7, 8GB 1600MHz memory, 512GB PCIe-based flash storage. My question is, is the i7 worth the $200 upgrade, or is the i5 good enough? And what about the RAM? Should I upgrade to 16GB? Or should I just get the 15 inch?
I might also want to run Windows on my Mac, but to you guys who have it on your Mac, how does Windows 8.1 run on your Mac? Does it work well with the trackpad and multitouch gestures? Does it have any issues on Windows 8.1?
Thanks.
