MBA 2011 : to buy or not to buy ?


hi there,

have money invest in purchase of mba (the second 1 i'm buying in couple of months, since had first 1 stolen in september :'( ). i'll categorically need before end of may, because need massive data treatement uni, impossible perform on old netbook crap.

rumors around mba 2012 released soon, in april or may ; otoh other rumors rather released in june or later summer, mountain lion. so, understand dilemma : wouldn't mind lingering month or netbook, if it's worth brand new ivy bridge air ; if, after this waiting, i'll have buy mba 2011 because apple set mba 2012 released @ end of may, in june or whatever - well, piss me off.

know apple knows if , when 2012 update released (it's said big ceo in sky asked newcomer steve jobs news, , said : top secret). 2 questions different :

  1. is there hope that, during month of march, rumors more reliable, if not actual release date, @ least when surely not released ?
  2. if buy apple-refurbished , guaranteed air 13' i7 1,8ghz 256gb for, say, 1359.00 €, how realistically resell once new air out, assuming i'm using 4 month , keeping in conditions ? , if buy brand new 1 ? in other words, how money need upgrade mba 2011 mba 2012 once latter sees day ?

thank advice !

1) i'd wait till @ least wed when apple event occurs. other i'm not counting on hints until imminent launch.

2) depends on sell. listed mba here , got interest @ $950 , didn't sell it. ended selling on craigslist locally $1100. took on month sell though. purchased on amazon no tax, in case didn't take hit. typically $100-150 in past if timed right.
