Users reporting image problems with their new Retina Display MacBook Pro.
Apple is reportedly aware of the situation and is ordering new displays to replace defective ones. The bad news, it can take two or three weeks for the displays to get there.

SSD prices plummeted by 48 percent over the past year.
Overall, the statistics show a huge 48 percent drop in the average price of a flash storage drive. Several models finally fall beneath the hallowed $1 per GB threshold, making them a viable alternative to regular hard drives.
Good news.
Surface: Between a Rock and a Hardware Place
John Gruber at Daring Fireball:
Watching the Microsoft Surface event video, I sensed uneasiness. Not panic, but discomfort. Some will argue that I’m simply spoiled by Apple’s on-stage polish, but Monday’s Microsoft event struck me as rushed and severely under-rehearsed. Ballmer offered nothing but blustering bromides, and nothing even vaguely resembling a coherent answer to the big question: Why? Steven Sinofsky was nervous and hurried. It didn’t help that his first Surface RT unit crashed before he’d done anything other than wake it up. There was a moment where he said Surface was perfect for sitting down, relaxing in a chair, and watching a movie. He sat in that chair for about three seconds before rushing into the next segment.
I had the same impression watching the keynote. The moment Sinofsky rushed to the table to swap the tablet that just crashed in his hands, was painful. Imagine if something like that happens at an Apple event.

I miss Ballmer going DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS!!!
