hmmm...I checked all the LED's after you said this. mine are cool. so
far, I've not experienced any hardware strangeness; just a *bit* of
OS weirdness. <crossing fingers that nothing bad happens>

also, my knobs seem a *bit* harder to turn than the MD knobs. maybe they'll
loosen up (I think the MD knobs did a bit). but nothing really feels too
flimsy in this beast. the joystick doesn't really snap back to center
the way I had hoped (and it's a bit off-center when in it's "home"
position as well), but that's not really a problem.

your demos are great, BTW. I wish I had a table big enough to lay the MD
and MM side-by-side like in your photos. it would make them a bit
easier to play, I think. right now, I have one above the other;
and that's fine. I mean, why am I complaining when I have these two
incredible machines to play? :-)
