Look, before anyone else starts accusing me of being a Roland fanatic (you all KNOW how much I bitch about it!), let me just tell you I don't care if the bad review is of a Roland, or a Ketron, or a Korg, or any damn thing...
I just care whether the opinion is derived from sufficient time in the saddle, and a modicum of communication with experienced users. Otherwise, it is a 'brief impression'. And should be posted as such. We have countless queries from newbies asking our opinion of arrangers they would like to buy. I simply feel that we owe them the full disclosure of just how long we spent, and how much effort we took, coming up with those 'impressions'.
Otherwise they might take my panning of an S900 after the briefest of confused tryouts of it seriously... 
You wouldn't want that, would you? 
A big reason I chose to look at the SD-5 and G70 were due to reviews from seasoned veterans that had their instruments a long time. In retrospect, those reviews left me scratching my head. Who's to say that those reviews didn't set me back?
The right to offer a review is my right. Take it or leave it. If it bothers you, then don't read my posts.
Some just figure things out faster than others.
My life (business and music) is fast paced. I can discern what's best for my audience very quickly and that's all I really care about.
