Seems like Donny got a bargain on floor samples of the CM-30's and asked as much or close to it as he paid (maby more). If you have the time, that's the way to minimize total equipment costs, especially, when you add the depreciation factor.

Of course, if you depreciate a piece to zero, you're supposed to pay capital gains tax on the proceeds from the sale (*or difference between book value and selling proceeds). And, we ALL know we each look forward to paying that, right?

At least that's a better approach than mine. I just stack old equipment in the warehouse and let it rot!
