So how do you manage to sell the latest thing and make a profit? Do you
have to sell last month's model when you still have it in stock, or do
have a contract that allows you to return parts that have become obsolete?
This is something I have not understood about the business -- if you keep
tings in stock, don't you run a risk (a high risk, I'd think) of actually
*losing* money?
