Hi

I second Paul. I have both DOTCOM (88 system) and COTK systems (set  
up close to that of Paul)
and I am happy with both.
COTK is no ripp off at all. The building quality of the COTK module  
is comparable or even
better than Synthesizers.com (and Synthesizers.com is good value).
The two only drawbacks are i) it is hard to communicate wit the COTK  
people and ii) the
currency balance makes COTK expansive for USA customers but this last  
point is no big deal
since US people can easily buy DOTCOM which, I repeat, is good value.


All the best

Yves
