"won't there be something better by the time I am able to use the extra one I'm thinking of buying?"

Depends on the time frame. You certainly raise a valid point. I bought the two extra BH6 combos because my wife needs a machine ASAP, and I currently have no backup machine, having just sold my homebrew Cyrix 200. So I had a need for 2 machines now. It is because of reasoning similar to yours that I didn't buy even more.

I do think that one is unlikely to do better than the bh6/300a combo for at least the next quarter or two. Moreover, it will surely be adequate for most users well beyond 2000. Given the price, one could hardly go wrong taking the bait if one's time frame is near-mid term on an additional machine.
