I bought a new MacBook Pro during WWDC this year. I had the option to get the RMBP, but I didn't, and I don't regret my decision. The performance vs. cost ratio of this laptop is significantly higher (plus I get a disc drive), and honestly with the high-res screen, I have to be a lot closer than my normal viewing distance to notice a difference between this and the RMBP.

Only thing I think I think I'll regret in the future is not getting an SSD. Oh well. I like my storage space more than my speed.

Since you got a non retina MBP you can upgrade your storage to a SSD and at a discount.
