Funny.  Ha ha.  The "war on terror"(wot?) is no joke.  (snicker)  
Funny.

I only use the midi machines at the end never the first BD spot.  

I like to second the notion that if this thing is expensive they 
should have a cheaper non keyboard version.  That effects idea of 
having alot of inputs is interesting.  Hopefully it'll have a 
sampling feature like the new roland kb and a little hard drive.  
This better be good because these are the things that can take a good 
company down.  

Oh, and I like to add.  There was another article in The Wire 
magazine that mentioned the SID station.  It was in an article about 
a group called Supersilent in Norway.  The guy said, "Very noisy. 
Even if you don't play it, it pops and crackles - a beautiful 
instrument."  

Is this true?  Does the SID make sound on it's own?

Apparently two of the members are working on a project that is 
described as "an album of improvised music for church organ and SID-
station."  Cool.
