If selling to an investor, you need to take in average returns. They can
get 5% risk-free from a bank, 10% from a low-risk fund, and 15% from a
high-risk fund (numbers for purposes of our discussion only; they bear
little resemblance to the present reality). If this is the case, then

Why buy other's outdated equipment when you can get the brand new state of
