No worries! I occasionally get to buy myself toys, too! My kids aren't in
college, yet, but this won't make or break their ability to go. Rest assured
that if I thought I had an instrument that would yield enough return that $700
would make a significant contribution to their college fund, I'd have put the
money there!

No problem with that outlook, KE... it all depends on your resources
and threshold for economic pain. I purchased the Orion II for the same
reason... my Omni VII works well... but I just plain wanted the Orion II
and scarfed a super clean, minty one for cheap !!
I am LUCKY my XYL is OK with it.
Now... to sell her on the tower idea... ;-)
I also believe a guy is due some sort of trophy or prize for having
survived the working world - paying for the cars, the house, kids in
college, shoes, clothing... and after paying for all that a guy DESERVES
some sort of treat for having made it. So I understand your position
completely.

to be perfectly honest, I bought it simply because... Well, I *wanted*
one. I wanted a fully decked out O II. Like so many things, it's a
decision made for purely personal and somewhat selfish reasons.
