Need Convincing....

[rscosworth]

Guys,

I have an iPhone 5 and iPad 4 and I am a self confessed Apple fanboy (I queue for new product launches) etc

I have always wanted to try Mac os, I used to own a MacMini but used windows on it (i was using it as a media centre at the time)

I have been scouring gumtree for weeks and weeks looking for a reasonably priced MacBook Pro or MacBook Air but they seem to hold their price to ridiculous levels.

I looked at the refurb store and found a 13.3" MacBook Pro Retina display model for £1059 and bought it.

I bought it purely because of Apples return policy, knowing that I would probably send it back within the 14day period, having satisfied the itch that was MacBook ownership.

It is a lovely machine, seems very very quick and the screen is amazing. The issue is that I already have an almost new Lenovo laptop (T430) which I can't sell, but it does not struggle with anything I use it for, browsing, itunes, watching movies etc.

So - convince me that I need to keep this MacBook - or have I answered all my doubts already.

I have the money but, is it foolish and frivolous to spend when I don't need to?

Thoughts.....

I am also a Lenovo fanboy (it's part of my job) which is why perhaps it's silly to spend a grand when I have one with no outlay.

Return it, wait for Retina Air.

good suggestion. I have been using it a fair bit over the weekend and getting used to it, but I think the writing is on the wall and it will be getting returned.

Thanks for all the comments.
