You can get the 2012 mini's in the refurb store for a decent discount so go for the i7 Mini, it's worth it.

I usually advise that if your current system is doing everything you want, then why change it? If you want to go from a macbook to a desktop then the current mini's are great.

The only upcoming changes are likely to be performance increases. If you do anything that is processor or graphics heavy then it might be better to wait, but if not then the current ones will be fine.

I use a 2012 mini and often use it for encoding and graphics design work, its more than enough oomph for me. I even play games from time to time and while it wont handle full 1080p at super extra graphics settings, its fine and just as enjoyable with med settings.

If you dont play games then current specs are most likely plenty for you.

A Base Mac Mini would probably do for you, I bought one a couple of weeks ago and have no problems whatsoever aside the 10.8.2 problems.

What size is your Macbook? Any chance you would be looking to trade?

I have a Late 2012 Mini with a 32gb ram upgrade.

Thanks!
