Re-surfacing is a great idea if you're going to sell next spring. If you're going to stay, do it right, do it once. Concrete.
It doesn't matter how well they rough up the substrate, there'll still be a cold joint (cold joint: something stuck to something similar or the same, but placed at different times). As long as there's a cold joint, the surface of your "new" asphalt driveway will peel and break.
I love the quoted post because I used to do concrete as well. Concrete finishing is an art.
