Any Apple v1 is usually going to have one downside. That's the rMBPs.

I was crazy enough to buy a v1 MBA. That thing ran so slowly due to overheating it wasn't funny. Now they're the most awesome portable notebook you can buy. :)

The v2 of a 13" rMBP might be the perfect laptop. :)

Yea, I know that it's technically a V1 for the 13", but you would think that Apple would have noticed that the discrete graphics on the larger model (which has only a slightly higher resolution) were barely getting the job done as it was.

I have high hopes for the next version, I'm hoping that they can work out the performance issues and at the same time implement retina screens into the actual Macbook Air product line.
