No CD rom is not a big deal. When you use CDs you can buy a $50 DVD burner on USB.

But the retina display is a mere gimmick, due to the larger distance from the screen than a tablet or smartphone the 220 ppi is a gimmick.
Moreover it will consume more power as it has to drive 4 times as many pixels.

I rather hoped for a tilt-and-swivel touchscreen.
