You’ll have to cough up $1299 for a 128GB Retina MacBook Pro or $1499 for a 256GB option, with both being powered by dual core Intel i5 processors clocked at 2.6GHz.

If you want to go bigger with the screen, then the 2014 15-inch MacBook Pro comes with 16GB RAM which is up from 8GB. For $1999, you get a 4th generation 2.2GHz quad core Intel i7processor, Intel Iris Pro graphics and 256GB storage. $2499 will buy you a 2.5GHz quad core Intel i7 Pro variant with 512GB memory, Intel Iris Pro graphics and GeForce GT 750M muscle.
