Dave,
"Terry - relax - this is not a personal attack."
I never thought it was, I'm just a bit bored with hearing "Well it doesn't have internal speakers though."

From my perspective, which is obviously different than your needs, the Tyros speaker setup is not a problem at all. Considering the tons of cool new things this board has, not to mention the most important, the sound, even if I hated the speakers, I wouldn't let that stop me from all the plus's. Is all I'm really trying to get across to you.

This sounds like it's just not a board for you, which is ok too.
Terry
