Buy 13" MBP Now or Wait Until June?

So a new car is similar? As soon as you drive it off the lot you lose lots of resale value. As soon as you use a computer it becomes used and loses a lot of resale value.

So you'd buy a 2012 model car at full retail price a couple of weeks before the 2013s come out and lose a full year's value over two weeks?

No of course not, I was referencing the idea of a computer as an investment.

If one needs one now then one would be somewhat foolish to sit around for a few weeks waiting on one that is not going to offer one much benefit.

Exactly *where* in the OP's post does he say he needs one now?

If you don't need it immediately... just wait a few weeks. I can't believe people are arguing about this.

One.

The people who need something immediately are not coming here asking whether they should wait. The ones who ask are all trying to evaluate whether the wait will be worth it for them. They are asking for information to help them make that decision.
