Help me pick a new laptop!

I am in need of a new laptop extremely badly and am weighing my options. My two current options are between a 13" retina Macbook Pro with 8gb of ram and 256gb of storage or a 13" Macbook Air with 8gb of ram and 256gb of storage. The price difference between the two is only about $200 so this makes me want to go with the slightly more expensive Macbook Pro because of the faster processor. The only thing holding me back from going to go buy it tomorrow is the apparent issues of the retina coating peeling and the issue not being addressed very well by apple. Some seem to have luck having the screen replaced for free while others don't.

I know most are going to start hating on me because I'm only considering apple products but at this point, having been a user of windows forever, I HATE it now. Windows 8 might be the worst operating system I've ever used. I was considering the Dell XPS 13 but the computer is a lot smaller than I'm looking for and it just doesn't compare to an air which is priced similarly. If anyone has any other options, I'm all ears.
