Try putting in couple of zeros at the end of current difficulty
That's what I do. I want to make sure that whatever I buy can still be viable if the network is 100x what it is now. 
What I am primarily wondering is the remainder of this year; I assume that once the ASICs are everywhere it will get wacky.
Say, for example, someone brought a 60 GH machine online by the end of this month and ran it all year; what would they be looking at realistically ?

How on earth is anyone to know? All you can do is predict the sum of the BfL pre-order, Avalon including total chip orders and ASICminer's expectations and assume the effect on hashrate.

To use the bitcoin profit calculator what is the best method to assume the difficulty is going up a certain level ?

I see the "Profitability decline per year" -- what does this equal in terms of increasing the difficulty ? And what is a realistic number to use here assuming everyone will be getting the Run #2 ASICs online soon ?
