I've been using MBA for a year now and while I like the portability of this machine, I have a little bit of Buyer's Remorse for not getting a rMBP instead, even if it is .5 lb heavier.
What I know so far (according to rumors) is this:
In mid-late 2014,
Apple will finally release a lighter, retina MBA... but the opportunity cost is that it will be presented with 12" display.
I'm not sure if the rMBA processor will be Broadwell, but knowing Apple, I believe that it will have Haswell 2.0 processor.
As for 13" rMBP, it will be presented with Broadwell processor and (maybe) IGZO display. This will increase 30% battery life - so now it gets all-day battery life.
I'm more inclined to side with the rMBP 13" for 2014 model, because decreasing 1" screen size will now be too small for me to work on.
Anything else to add?
Which model would you buy?
