Yep, I agree entirely. And looking at the competition, nothing else comes close, especially in regards to style and sound quality (those SA/SA2 sounds are unmatched by anything else, in my opinion), so we could be in for the long haul, not a bad idea in any case.

I agree about the black cabinet...the silver looks better to me after seeing the black...it may have something to do with the S950 buttons being grayish and hard to see...it's not as bad on the Tyros4 SE (black cabinet model) because the buttons are the same as the regular Tyros4.

Personally, having the Tyros4 for over two years, I can't imagine a better pro arranger keyboard to have under my fingers. It's a long time since I made that kind of statement, Danny, so you can probably sense, that, like you, I won't make any changes for at least past the Tyros5's run, and maybe longer.

Not needing to look at anything else equipment-wise means more quality time with a superb instrument, a well known operating system, and, hopefully some new recorded tunes in the near future.
