> I'll have to get used to the reduced travel after working with a late 2012 for 5+ years! I have been working on my 2012 MBP since my wife got it for me new as a birthday gift. I absolutely love it and actually just put in an SSD the other day and it is even more amazing now. I just can't imagine not being able to easily change parts on my own laptop and the fact that this is the last model to allow that for MBP has driven the price up relative to other model years.

I'm confused. My 2012 MBP already came with a 256GB SSD (lowest possible standard configuration) and it's soldered, like the RAM. Did you mean a 2011 MBP?

  You're talking about the "2012 MacBook Pro with Retina Display", they also sold a model without a retina display that used a standard laptop drive and came with an optical drive (!).

    Exactly. I have the non-retina + DVD-RW drive.
