Hello readers,

Well, we can put the question to bed—the Retina display has moved from the iPad to the notebook line with the introduction of the new MacBook Pro last week. I really don’t get too exicted about product releases, though; the last time I started drooling was when I saw an iPad for the first time. I was an instant and enthusiastic believer. (I still am.) I can go for days at a time without opening my notebook!

Today, for instance, I am snuggling my daughter who managed to break her leg on a slip-n-slide this weekend, and not only is my iPad providing occasional entertainment, I am writing this without bothering or moving her at all.

Anyway, back on track…we can’t wait to see the Retina display on the MacBook Pro. You can have a full-resolution 1080p video running in a window on your desktop and still have enough room to work on other stuff around it. Incredible. I will be waiting to see if they put this on an iMac…that would be another instant gotta-have-it moment for me. See you next week.
