so i call Guitar Center and Sam Ash in the NY/NJ area, and ask for keyboard dept.

i then ask rep: do you have the Tyros 3 on the floor?

rep says? Tyros..Tyros...let me see.. That's a Korg right?

you kidding? why are the people working @ these stores so ignorant and clueless?

i remember back in the days, not only did they know the makes, models, etc, they new how to demo stuff, they knew how to play the stuff, they knew the differences amongst the instruments, they knew how to edit/program, etc,

nowadays it seems like they're last job was stockboy at the local A&P, ShopRite,

how sad...
