[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1604496"] Actually, the OP is correct -- there is surprisingly little difference between a 2011 model and a new one. Sure you have a faster processor and Thunderbolt 2 (rather than Thunderbolt) on the 2013 model, and marginally better graphics. Apart from that -- an SSD install would give him very similar performance. I'd say go for the SSD update now, and re-evaluate in two years. [/QUOTE]
