Yeah. I would love to play Minecraft on it. It would fit so much on the screen! I will probably get it around November. (Not for my birthday though.)

Oh, yea. Perfect match  tongue

Though I wonder what a HD texturepack would look like on it  big_smile

The rMBP is basically the ultimate laptop right now. Tell me what it's like. The Apple Store at the Myer we go to doesn't stock it yet, so I haven't had a chance to try it  smile

Sorry to rain on your birthday parade, but unless the app is retina-optimised, or you have the settings at a different resolution, it will render at 1440*900 and be scaled up to retina. Not that it isn't an amazing computer, though.  tongue

That is still higher resolution than my current notebook PC.

Only if they are retina-aware.

Full screen I mean. Or you could use native red with normal DPI to have tiny buttons and stuff, but still OK to play MC I guess.
