Can you sell a cRIO?

Hi,

We have an old cRIO laying around, not doing anything but sitting in a bucket of other outdated technology. We would like to have another roboRio that we could use for training the younger people how to program and wire, but don't have the budget for another Rio. Plus we use Python which is much harder to run on the old system. I know FIRST teams were able to buy the cRIO at a nice discount thanks to National Instruments which makes me think that they probably outlawed selling it for obvious reasons. The other problem I guess is that who would want the old control system if it costs more than the new system?

Anyways, I was just curious if there is a way to pawn off the cRio that doesn't break any wishes that NI possessed?
