end of cycle poll: wait for the purported new MacBook Pro line in the next month, or get a refurb that would be good enough

at a hefty discount from what i'll pay for one of the new ones?

if it was just tweaks to the line, i'd probably go for the savings. but since i only buy a computer once every six years or so, i have no problem investing in a new model that i know will be more than adequate for several years
