Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Ed, I know it's a rather open ended question, I'm just
curious what others are using and how they like it.

Maybe some good reads for people debating on what to get.

I personally think I'll go the route of a Tascam 788 or
similar machine. Buying sounds cards and upgrading my
computer doesn't appeal to me at the moment.

Not to mention hardware like a DAW, doesn't lose it's value
as fast as a new computer does. Every time I get a new computer,
I can hear the price dropping when I walk out the door.
