Exactly! I'm not a gadget nut, and I don't have limited resources. So if I'm going to make just one purchase, I'm going to watch and plan accordingly to ensure I get it at the right time. There's also the fact that I've come in on the tail end of some products that were undergoing aggressive two year refresh cycles, and got burned badly when they dumped all support for the previous model only weeks after releasing the new one. So yeah, I'm a bit cautious these days in how I make my tech purchases.
