This is why you should wait if you can for atleast second generation before taking a plunge.
As always there is no one better than Anandtech when it comes to giving indepth technical review of gadgets/computers...
AnandTech goes on to assess this graphics performance, noting that the Retina MacBook Pro at times struggles to maintain a "consistently smooth experience".
At 2880 x 1800 most interactions are smooth but things like zooming windows or scrolling on certain web pages is clearly sub-30fps. At the higher scaled resolutions, since the GPU has to render as much as 9.2MP, even UI performance can be sluggish. There’s simply nothing that can be done at this point - Apple is pushing the limits of the hardware we have available today, far beyond what any other OEM has done.

Have you seen one person? I went to the Apple Store and I wasn't entirely impressed with the display. Very good, but didn't blow my mind. Also, if you're a road warrior it simply will not work, a lot of glare in the store even though Apple claims they reduced the glare by 75%.

Typing this on one right now. Editing in Aperture and lightroom is amazing; there is an incredible amount of detail and "depth" to the images that was not there before. Just makes me wish everyone could see the edits on a screen like this.
Makes a great windows 7 machine too for what it's worth.
