Synthguy, you make some good points, but here's another perspective. Because synth-arranger technology is continously IMPROVING at a lighting pace, it may make more sense to spend $1200-$1500 and get a keyboard which may perhaps not be as durable or the top of line most expensive model, yet INCLUDES the latest new sounds, styles, & features, and then be able to 'actually afford' UPGRADING (in 2-4 years) to the NEXT new arranger kb technology just around the bend. Perhaps when arranger keyboard technology reaches a 'longer lasting' plateau would be the better time to invest in something which will provide long term (over 5-10 years) satsifaction.
