Yeah, that's where the Apple's Retina Display shines.

To be honest, I never cared much for investing in a good screen until I got an iPad 4 and saw how much of a difference it made. Now that I'm in the market for a new development system, I don't think I want to settle for anything less than 1080p and IPS.

I just hope the 13" Haswell retina will allow 16GB Ram.

I agree. A 13" rMBP w/ Haswell and 16Gb ram to me is the perfect balance of power, function and footprint. I don't have high hopes for Apple increasing the max to 16Gb though :(
