I have a 2011 11"MBA, and am a big fan of this little laptop for when I travel light (I also use a 15"MBr when portability is less important), as it has pretty much all I need including ports. There is little doubt the new 12" would not fit the bill for me, and getting a 13" instead would be a downgrade. I did not expect the new 12"MBAr would be what I need anyway, but I certainly did not expect this fantastic 11" line be discontinued. How serious is that discontinuation rumor ?
After reading this thread, I am wondering whether I should not just upgrade right now to a 2014 11"MBA Ultimate, with much better battery life than my current, and that should last a long time (the current would become a backup laptop for the lab). Otherwise, if my current 11" goes tech in a year or two, I will really miss it very much, unless the new 12" catches up by then.
Am I thinking totally wrong ?
