I quit buying pretty much everything on forst release anymore...except P5...anyway.... Books dump out in a couple of months form $25 to 5.99 game software goes from $49 to $9.99 bargain bin in less than a year. Electronic equipment changes so fast, the closeouts are near giveaways. Now 3d models for Poser...I was buying stuff on first release, especially at DAZ, with the sometimes very large release discount...but now, I may have to think about it.

Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together.
All things connect......Chief Seattle, 1854
