Exactly, Nigel. Donny's MO is his MO, nobody elses and he's happy with it. I really don't know why anyone gets their knickers in a twist over it.

It's not the MO... it the unbridled enthusiasm for a piece of gear that we all KNOW he's going to turn around and stab in the back after a few weeks.

It's POSSIBLE that some people take Donny's recommendations seriously, and that just seems so irresponsible. How about waiting on the recommendations until you've kept something for, let's be safe and say six months..? Then, we'll KNOW it is what you really mean.

The list of gear that Donny has gushed about and then ditched after a few weeks should be a warning to anyone that takes his initial assessment at face value. Wait! You'll save a fortune...

That sounds fair enough, Diki. Maybe some folk really do buy into the old "it must be true, I saw it on the internet" thing. I'd hope most people have a bit more 'common' than that, but then . . .

We can't all be our brothers' keeper, though.

Good point Dnj. Just ignore the complainers.

Don't take it so personally. Although you may not move through gear in the same way why do you even care let alone continue to whine about it on a public forum? Find a new outlet please. And changing a keyboard is not "stabbing it in the back". OMG keyboards are inanimate objects, you do know that ... don't you? Changing a keyboard simply means that something else may be better in some areas for your application it doesn't mean it doesn't have strong points. It is all subjective.

There are more important things to argue about. This just ain't one of them.
