“[I]t is ambition enough to be employed as an under-labourer in clearing the ground a little,
and removing some of the rubbish that lies in the way to knowledge.” —John Locke, 1689

“[P]hilosophy can no more show a man what he should attach importance to
than geometry can show a man where he should stand.” —Peter Winch, 1968

Sorry, not feeling guilty at all. How 'bout an old slide rule that I have laying around the house?

How 'bout a great dinner on the river walk; should you find yourself in San Antonio?

I bought my sister a laptop last year. Sorry, all tapped out on extra laptop cash for this decade.

My old Compaq LTE is till running and used occasionally to check bank accounts, etc.

I bought it used 6 years ago for $250, and it was about 2 years old then. When it was new it had a list of $4500 and a street price around $4000.

Why buy something that will lose 90% of its value in two years?
