I had to buy the game consoles up in bundles; it's still almost impossible to find *just* a Wii. I tried for two weeks before giving up and going for three bundled systems. But that's alright; I figure I can sell off the bundled bits as well in convenient combinations during the holiday season. And maybe I'll keep a couple of the extra controllers for myself.
So why did I do this? Well, I'll answer with my seventh rule for getting into space:
Rule 7: Always Watch for Ways to Make a Little Extra Cash.
Another way to put that is the ninth rule of acquisition: Opportunity plus instinct equals profit.
Yes, I went there.
Anyway, if I make anything on this, I'm going to put it into my solar panel savings, but the rule still applies. And honestly, I feel a little guilty about worsening already dwindling supplies of something everyone wants to make a little profit, but, what can you say? At least I'm doing it to save the environment... there's always that.

I noticed you were interested in using solar panels and i think that it is a great idea. I have already started to build my own and it really isnt as hard or expensive as you would think. I am even using a windmill right now to help power my ac unit. Anyways this is where i got started and thought that you should check it out. http://toddsgeneralstore.goods.officelive.com/freepower.aspx
I appreciate the advice! Just three problems:
1. I'm planning to have the solar panels professionally installed at the same time I have my roof redone. Building codes around here say it has to be done by a professional to have it grid-tied anyway (which is what I'm planning).
2. I've already built a small solar setup that I use to recharge batteries for all my devices, so I already know how to do that.
3. I'm not inclined to pay $50 for a set of instructions when I can find others for free online (such as the instructions I used to build my smaller setup).
But thanks anyway!
