Fully loaded K2500S with all options and about $2k in library for it (bought back when it WAS the top-of-the-line workstation). It STILL does stuff nothing else can do....
Got about $7k tied up in a computer system with audio cards, audio processing cards (LOVE those UAD plugs!) peripherals and VST instruments like BFD, Ivory, Atmosphere, Halion, etc., etc.. (Just the computer, not outboard like monitors, mics, etc..)
I don't argue with you because I can't afford them, I'm just looking at the likeliness that after spending $7k+ on a hybrid, someone will have one with a two-years down the line CPU and hardware, for $3k, and what I already have can get me through that waiting period...
Back in the late 70's, early 80's, you had to have$20k+ to get a Yamaha FM keyboard. Then came the $2k DX7.... THAT'S what I'm kind of anticipating will happen to hybrids. There is only three out at the moment - MS, Neko and Wersi (Oasys doesn't count, because it is not Open). No major players at all, yet.
I'm going to get one, no doubt about it. But I (and probably most without really deep pockets) am going to wait a bit and see what happens.
Of the three keyboards you list, one (the Oasys) you are already posting about how you are likely to get rid of it, one (the MS) you have already acknowledged that it is STILL a 'work-in-progress', and only the Wersi gets the nod as a complete instrument....
Not a very good batting average for, what is it, nearly $30k's worth of keyboards? ($16k for the Abacus, $8k for an Oasys76, $5k for an MS, about right?)
