Does anyone out there own a Kurzweil?
	I played one at a music store on the West coast in September. It
was phenomenal! It REALLY does have the sound and action of a concert 
grand. It is a little strange though to be playing the Hammond organ sound with
the Grande piano action. Strings are even stranger, although they sound great.
I've learned however by experience not to jump on anything this new. I've been
waiting to see if they deliver the periphs they promise within a reasonable
time frame.
	I was told then, that Kurzweil was going to be oeming Apple Macs
for the Sampling and Digital synthesis interface. (Anyone know if they've done
it yet?). Also they were expanding the available presampled sounds.
I guess I'm most interested in the digital synthesis capabilities of the
machine and would most appreciate feedback from anyone owning one or
being privy to much information.

[ Take what I say in a different way ]
[        and it's easy to say        ]
[     that this is all confusion     ]
