Thanks for backing me up, my friends

My wife (and that powerful voice of reason) says that it doesn't make financial sense to keep an HDJ-80 in the USA while we live here in the Philippines. And every molecule in my brain agrees with her --but the rest of me doesn't. And so is my son against the sale, saying that he'll be back to study in California anyway.

So, to keep her happy, I've put up a website that says I'm selling it. To answer her questions every now and then as to whether I've sold it & if I'm *really* doing anything about it (she's becoming suspicious everyday --she knows me too darn well), I give her a few names from people who says they're interested, then report back to her saying I've got good leads... but they somehow peter out for some unknown reason

If somebody does buy it for the amount I'm asking, I wouldn't turn it down. I'll be sad of course, like having a bright-and-glorious-son-going-away-to-get-married kind of sad, but I'll instantly convert that sadness to happiness because I'll be using 100% of the money to setup a non-profit Linux school for poor kids here in the Philippines.
