Yes.

Having said that, I'd suggest looking around for a free
refrigerator, then sell the window AC and use the proceeds to buy
a vacuum sealing unit so you can produce your own bags (-:

Well, your absolutely right, but I really hate selling stuff...it is
more hassle then I am generally willing to go through. But, OTOH, the
sale of the AC unit could indeed help get the press started...maybe I
should just get off my butt and sell it (amonst some other things).
