Well, it sounds like you're concerned about your experience -- at
least partly. I would not concern yourself so much with that. Sure,
you may run into a road block, but we're all here to help you out if
you do. By hook or by crook, you'll have either machine built.

I think what the issue really comes down to is how much you want to
spend on a new system before the advances come out.

Cheers,
