Hmm, well, I just bought a used Toaster 2.0 about a month ago for $1400 and now
I am faced with the same upgrade choice that you have. Given that I paid $1400,
I don't feel too bad. I reason that I can get the new board and software for
the old board for around $1800 and then sell the old board with the new
software for around $1200. At least that is theory <g>. In that way, I get
the new Toaster for around $1800 plus a few hassles installing, and removing,
trodding off the UPS, getting the new card, installing it, etc. I think if I
had paid $2000 just a few months ago, it would be a different story though. I
wish that a company as hip as NewTek would develop some dicounted prices for
people in your position. It would only be fair.
