Hi Everybody,

 

I just bought Macbook pro 15" with retina display with 16GB RAM, I7 processor, 256 GB hard disk.

 

After i bought my friend told me that Intel is going to release new BroadWell processor which is more efficient and all the MacBooks are going to get them with in a month.

 

I got the current one for 300$ less. 

 

My question is it worth to wait for the new MBP's or just continue using this new one which i bought 3 days back.

 

I have the option of returning it back.

 

Also apart from this MBP, i had Lenovo Z570 with I7 2nd generation processor. 

 

Please suggest.

    Stick with the one you have. Broadwell is coming for ultraportables like the Air, not the MBP. The MBP chips aren't due for a while:

    Thanks for the reply. I am going to stick with the current one. Also what i heard is there would be no much significant increase in the processing speed except that new mac's might be little thin than the current ones, max apple might include fingerprint since broadwell processors have the capability of storing security information.
