You know, Zuki, you are right...it is a bit silly to keep defending our keyboards.

They are what they are, and they continue to serve you and I (and many others) very well in our endeavors, be what they may.

What is reassuring is that neither of us feel the need to be critical in return.

I guess being secure in what we play and how we play it gives us that great advantage.

Glad you're lookin' at a new S900...you won't be disappointed.

Even though Yamaha has not verified a new action, I do notice a difference from the 3k.

Of course, one must remember that these keyboards cost FAR less than the TOTL arrangers, yet give the same quality sound and feel...they are truly a huge bang for the buck.

I believe the only people in denial, are the ones who can't (or won't) recognize a great instrument when they see (or play) one.
