Diki makes a good point on another post.
His G70 group, take a beaten with all the negative comments towards their beloved instrument..and if someone returns comments even slightly as negative about the Tyros2...the fur flies...I can always accept personal opinions for likes and dislikes of a product...knowing they are "personal".

Fran,
I couldn't agree more! You're right that there has been a lot of G-70 bashing on the forum, even though Roland has done a complete 180 with the unit since the initial release.

However, say something negative about the T2 or Yamaha, and it's like watching monkeys at the zoo "flinging poo". I have always felt that there has been an unfair bias towards Yamaha on the General Arranger's Forum.

At times I feel it seems as memebers feel they have to "protect their investment" vocally when someone says something negative about a keyboard--as if they owe the company something. This is clearly a mostly "opinionated" environment.

Users should be able to voice their opinions (even if they're negative) about a keyboard without getting hit in the head for it.
