i have a macbook pro 2010 15 i5 2.4 purchased in christmas, later purchased 8gb 1066 and 256 ssd.

is worth purchase macbook pro 2011 i7 2.2 hi res antiglare and swap memory and disk and sell 2010 macbook pro?

Really i like antiglare screen and i7 quadcore for vmware and lightroom.

If you are working with Lightroom I'd say yes its worth the upgrade, I did exactly the same thing and it makes a world of difference when working with high res photos.

I work with lightroom too, and the hi res screen is big difference when you are on the go

Yes - well it was worth it for me, anyway (my 2010 didn't have an SSD but my new hi-res anti-glare does).

absolutely... what are you staring at everytime you use your laptop?

I made the trade up from an early 2009 C2D @ 2.66GHz. I had the regular screen because a hi-res AG wasn't offered yet. Couldn't be happier
