I wouldn't pay that much for something that's designed to be disposable, even if I liked modern Macs...
I thought about it, but the Macs were missing some other things I needed, too expensive for the wrong thing. I recently bought a PC laptop for $2000. Depends on what you need and want and if you can pull it off. For a Windows PC I would not go for an equivalent of Retina display. I got a 1080P screen, and have trouble seeing the default fonts, too small. Trying to make the fonts larger kindof helps, btu it makes a lot of things get rendered incorrectly and so I can't see text anyway. Some website menu bars in Firefox don't get drawn at all, dialog boxes are wonky and missing some text that should be there, just not well done scaling. Hopefully OSX is better about that.
