rMPB 13' vs 15' - Screen problems and depreciation value

[TJunior]

Consindering buying rMPB (i5, 8GB, 256GB) or baseline 15'.
This is a computer i might hold on for a year, maybe two. Main use is school and some minor music production.

My question is:
Would the 13' be a safer bet considering all the problems with screen? Will the 13' inch give me more cash back, than the 15' when selling in a year?

I had a 15" and went through 4 exchanges with no luck. Finally gave up today and got a 13" with an i7 in store (They're now stocking them). The 13" screen is nearly perfect. I'm going to wait until summer when they come out with broadwell 15" rMBP and see if it is worth the upgrade. Or I'll just keep this 13" machine if it gets the job done.

Go with the one you actually want. Don't let anything else decide that for you.
