Probably but not until the next refresh. I should think by the end of next year all laptops Apple make will be retina enabled.

bad picture.

Back at home on my 27" iMac and the 2560 x 1440 display feels a little low resolution. 
A lot bigger than the 15" screen obviously.

^^ looks like a bad quality picture.

Probably the fact its reduced. The original is 3264 × 2448 so a little to large for these forums!

It's still a bad picture

It's a picture of a MacBook, snapped on a phone, compressed for the Internet. Go get Raymond Lyn if you want some arty picture.
Next time I'll make sure I pack the DSLR and tripod for when I'm passing an Apple store...

To be fair even if I did take the DLSR the picture wouldn't do the new MacBook Pro justice!

Yes, always take your DSLR with you when you are taking pictures of the Apple Store goods.

No. That was sarcasm. I was already carrying enough stuff ( I was in London on business) and popped into the store at lunch.
Plus, see above.

Just an 11" for portability, base-model. Was pondering the 15" Retina model but I don't think I could give up my desktop. Maybe in the near future though...

Why? Most people don't even use close to 4GB, let alone 8GB. If you're running a ton of VM's or something extremely memory heavy then you'll know you need more RAM. But OS X and regular programs aren't going to drastically change in the 2-3 years before buyers of this upgrade that they outgrow 4GB, let alone 8.

8 makes a massive difference to OSX from 4. I have 16 in my iMac and to be honest I use a lot of it. You just get used to what you have.

I upped the RAM in my mid-2010 MBP from 4 to 8GB earlier this year and wow, it was like getting a brand new computer! OS X does great with 4GB but it absolutely flies with 8GB+.
Not bad for a £35 layout! Personally I would look at getting 8GB as a minimum in a future Mac purchase. If the sods are gonna solder the RAM to the bloody board, you may as well get as much as you can afford - you never know what you may be asking of your machine a few months/years down the line.
