Now 2004, I have a used $449.00 craftsman table saw that I still
thoroughly
enjoy, and that $2300 computer is darkening some corner in a land fill
right
now..... what I wouldn't give to has that $2300 in tools now,
Funny what we are willing to spend money on.


I have thought of this often. Spend a grand on a computer and it will be
worth exactly nothing in 10 years whereas a grand invested in a jointer,
tablesaw, or any blurfl will not only still be useful, but it will retain
resale value.
