Wow! Man tempers are really starting to show in this forum. Folks we all need to understand that ALL of us have our own opinions about the different keyboards out there. Our opinions don't make one keyboard better than the other. We all have individual needs and the boards we buy are bought to fill those needs. Be it a Roland G-70, Tyros 2, Korg PA series, Casio and so on, it doesn't really matter. What works for one doesn't work for the other.
If someone says something negative about Roland, Yamaha, Korg, Casio, ect. So the hell what. It's their opinion. Just because someone doesn't like a particual board or disagrees with the way the release was handled doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to voice their opinion on the matter.
Personally I think Roland jumped the gun and all the buyers with the first OS were test subjects, BUT it's not just Roland. Yammie and Korg do it as well. The thing that eases all this suffering is when the company knows they jumped the gun, but fixes their booboos by selling boards with upgradable operating systems. I commend Roland for this. Since the release of OS2 there have been many happy G-70 owners.
We need to start respecting all of our fellow members on this forum. Even if you don't agree with what they say, you have to at least respect their opinion.
