You would not be the first to have a DSS100/DSP100 around for being a spare. I'd say it isn't a bad investment. Note, that software for it is done...the latest is 4.7.3.3 but you should be able to run most anything with that.

With the end of the line coming for the DSS200 in the middle of next year, perhaps there will be some that start to become available so there is validity there too.
