AWhich midi machine to get?
	If you want biggest bang for the buck, get the Atari ST. This thing
wins the midi race hands down if you are looking for ecomnomy and excellent
sequencing software. most of the rest of the machines you mentioned don't
come with midi interfaces, and the ones that do don't have as much varied
and powerful sequencing software as the Atari ST (with the exception of the
Macintosh, which is "pro" quality and the cost shows it). The laser has
midi, but again, the software is very limited compared to what you can do
on an ST.
