What the **** is Intel doing? They have been delaying for more than 15 years. I need to buy a new computer badly. But I don't wanna make do with the 13-inch. I hope the day when ARM completely replaces x86 comes early.
 
Also desperately hoping for some more information at WWDC as I need to make a decision as well. I'll be fine if they release Skylake later this year... I just need to know it's coming.
 
If you need one buy one.

Broadwell is going to make very little difference. Skylake will be next year. Unless you are getting the dGPU version (for gaming or CUDA accelerated software) then get one of the mid 2014 versions which can often be found on good deals at the moment.

If you think that ARM architecture is anywhere near being able to run a full desktop OS and apps at the level you want then your understanding of current technology is limited at best.
