<BR>Marketing Department. Just do something a little different, even if for no
<BR>reason. Then people will need to say Steinway this, Steinway that, why does
<BR>Steinway do it that way, why don't others....... And there ya go to have the
<BR>others, and then you have Steinway. I guarantee you that back in 1878 there
<BR>were a bunch of three piece suits sitting around the big walnut table at
<BR>Steinway trying to figure out ways to put the name Steinway on eveyone's
<BR>lips.
<BR>
<BR>Just my cynical take.

<BR>I could see your complaint if this thread was promoting Steinway. But all we're doing here is telling it like it is. No one is promoting Steinway. All we're doing is mentioning that Steinway keybeds are crowned. This is neither good, or bad publicity for the company. Just a reason for the discussion. If S'way keybeds were not crowned, we wouldn't be talking about it.
<BR>
<BR>Just my realistic take
