Not a fan of running Windows on a Mac (Bootcamp). I thought it would be awesome, then I tried it.

- Random stutters. Keys won't get registered, then a few seconds later one key acts like I held it down for a few seconds.
- Thunderbolt is not plug-and-play; it must be plugged in when you boot the computer or you can't use it.
- High pixel density is not exactly smooth sailing. Windows 7 does not support independent display scaling. If you have a Thunderbolt display and a MBP Retina, everything on the Thunderbolt display looks enormous while everything on the MBP Retina's screen looks tiny. Windows 8 supports independent display scaling, but then you're stuck using Windows 8.

I'd much rather have a Razer Blade. It will be nice to see some more lightweight yet powerful competitors come on the market.
