But you still have payments.&nbsp; Maybe try used till you determine your market, than buy new.&nbsp; I think this is a very complex question and I don't know enough about neither your workload nor your finiances to advise you on this issue.&nbsp; Just my opinion.<IMG style="CURSOR: pointer" &#111;nclick="AddSmileyIc&#111;n'smileys/guitar.gif'" alt=Guitar src="http://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/smileys/guitar.gif" border="0"></P><P>I am sure someone can help just not me.</P>]]>
