Re: [elektron] New Monomachine owner with a Big problem

2004-04-05 by bachypham

I noticed that as well, it did not bother me as much as the gap 
though, because dust could eventually harm the inner components.  
Actually, I wouldn't even mind the gap that much as long as the unit 
functioned properly.  It just bothers me that some people have 
encountered no problems whatsoever.  How could this be if the 
symptoms are supposed to be from a software bug.  It does not make 
any sense... shouldn't everyone who has a MM be experiencing what I 
am experincing?
