Mr Koval,

I understand your opinion! It was never my intention to imply that a sample
piano is better than the real thing, but it certainly is cheaper.

I already have a good HiFi, the keyboard and sample set could be had for
less than £1000, which saves me about £74,000 on the real thing.

Purely subjectivley I would say that the midi+sample solution sounds better
than most £1000 pianos. I wonder if you can get keyboards that have a "real"
action - that is a major drawback IMO.

Regards,

Nathan
