  18.  Yes, but it's probably not worth the trouble. I was told the upgrade is  $500
  19.  (!). New 550Cs are going for about $700 in this area, so if you could get
  20.  more than $200 (should be easy) for your old DW C, you would be better off.

  22.  [Tangent: I really don't understand why companies bother with these
  23.  "upgrades;" they are seldom worthwhile.]
