Yeah, I think the MBA13 (8GB) or the rMBA15 are the two most optimal choices for "primary Apple machine for most high-end users".

If only they sold retina desktop monitors. Without a big monitor, any amount of pixels on the laptop will only serve as an exceedingly high resolution twitter stream most of my day.

That said, I welcome they day when I can buy a >= 24 inch retina desktop monitor and I full well plan to spend a buckload of money on it as soon as it becomes available. (IF it is compatible with both Macs and other computers. That is a requirement)

I've been sitting here patiently waiting for a 5120x3200 px 27" iMac. When/if that ever happens apple can feel free to take all of my money.

I assume that won't happen until Haswell (for FMA) and only in discrete gpu. I'd hate it if they did something like 21.5, 21.5 Retina, 27 as the 3 models.
