Re: Looking at a MacPro with Retina display...have some questions

Love my MacBook Pro (13" - why call it a "laptop" if you get bigger?). Doesn't have "retinal display" but honestly, the screen looks great. Had it 3 years, no problem whatsoever. We also have the iMac (desktop) and it is fabulous. I would not willingly go back to a PC. I ordered both machines from Apple directly, via phone, after doing lots of research. I did not buy Apple care but the one time I had a question, they were helpful and answered my question. That said, I was well past high school before I could afford one - not sure I would pay that much for a HS student.

I agree with Lynnj. I wouldn't get a MacBook Pro with retina display for a high school student. A Macbook Air should be fine.
