Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

I like the idea of anyone considering selling ROM's or complete comand stations posting the idea
to the group first. I've been considering picking a new one up lately and just thought that no one
here really sells what they have but would love to hear about these things first. Keep it in the
comunity. Things could still be done through paypal ect., and if there was no great interest here
it could always be posted to ebay after. 
Anyway, I'm not personally in the market this exact moment ( but the right irresistable piece of
equiptment is always right around the corner ) so I'd love it if anyone considering selling let's
the group know.
