That is true. I am bidding (nearly lowest possible bid), on the Lexicon 480L. If I win the auction, I will borrow a LARC and test it. If it is broken I will have some basic skills on repairing stuff like that. If it appears then as unrepairable for me, I think I will be able to sell it again for mostly the same amount here. And even in the worst case, that it won't sell, the financial loss is not that big as, lets say with the PPG in the same situation. Florian -- http://www.florian-anwander.de
