Look at this teardown of the new Retina MacBook Pro. With the memory soldered in place, batteries glued down and a proprietary SSD, you won't be upgrading your Mac any time soon.
When you get to the battery, the individual packs of which take up a sizable portion of the new MacBook Pro’s casing, and which are glued in place. It also partially covers the trackpad cable. Finally, the display assembly “is completely fused” – Apple said that was to help slim the lid down – which means it will likely have to be replaced in its entirety should anything go wrong.
