Korg Z1 - keep it or sell it?

I just got a great deal on a brand new (yes - it is 2003 and yes I got it brand new) Korg Z1 - it was sitting in a box forgotten since 1998 in a local music store. I got the 18 voice version for $800!!!

Now, my dillema is with my setup - should I keep it or sell it? I bought it because it's classic but I just haven't spent enough time with it to fall in love with it. I already have Access Virus KC, Supernova, Triton Pro Studio, SN II, JD800, JP8080 - just wondering if it's worth keeping or just selling it?

Anyone has any experience with Z1 - what' s your opinion? My initial impression is that it's a powerfull little instrument, one of the first VA's but if you're buying it for built in sounds - a complete waste. This is more of a sound designer station. So, question is - is it worth it keeping?

the irony of the whole situation (embarassing part starts here) is that for the last month (since I rebuilt my system and re-wired everything) I have been confined to MIDI only function of my Cubase SX, as I can't seem to get my friggin HD Recording interface to work right. Between troubleshooting feeback and humming problems and working out patchbay routing nightmares, I had been going mad trying to get something to emit even fart-like noise in cubase but from the way it looks, i may need to scrap the whole project and move to Sonar.

To answer your question - yes, it is an aural delicacy to have some of these babies humming in unison
