Myself, I had a good annual review, that gave me some confidence just before I had a week off - bought the Z before the week was up - lol.
I would too be a little weary of making such a large purchase with a new job. I'd prolly get the cheapest POS I could until I was in the job AT LEAST 6 months, if not a year. Despite what the Dow says, we are still in hard times where people can lose their jobs at the drop of a hat, especially if you're "the new guy."
