Should I buy one now or wait to Haswell?
I don't really need one now but I would really love to have one now
As there is a spec bump update in Februar, does this mean that the Haswell update could wait until really late in 2013 (and not in June/July as was generally expected)? Why would they update now if they plan to update with Haswell in June??
Argument againt buying: there are many reported problems with the current rMBP. They don't simply go away after this spec bump update, right? Better wait for the "real" 2nd gen rMBP?
One argument for buying on now is that there is a promotion at our university right now where I can get a somewhat cheaper rMBP and cheaper AppleCare. Next promotion time is in Sept-Oct, I don't know if I can wait so long.
Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks
