[QUOTE="MangoMike, post: 1625316, member: 134025"] My MBP is used as a desktop computer, with an external Apple 24" monitor, keyboard and mouse. The MBP sits in a stand behind the monitor and is seldom unplugged. It is a mid-2009 with 8 gb of Ram and a 159 gb HD which only has 10gb free. So I either need to replace the drive (long discussion in another thread), or buy a new MBP. Given my setup is there any benefit to the Retina display given that I use an external monitor and seldom open the case on the MBP? Thanks, Mike [/QUOTE]
