Ooh. Impressions?

@kdfrawg Here's a comparison you might get better: mushy rubber domes vs buckling spring keyboards.

@kdfrawg Indeed. Really thought I'd scored a great deal on something to entertain me during the winter nights. But I grew up with Yamaha uprights, and we had a Yamaha baby grand in Vancouver, so understandably it's hard to get used to synth-like keys and action.

Got the keyboard home and within 30 minutes decided I just wasn't going to get along with it. Far too used to proper pianos.

Guess I'll put it up for sale tomorrow or so.

OS X's lack of verbosity at every stage is frustrating. My login is taking forever after this restart and I don't know why.

One of many reasons I detest restarting…

It is nice to have a network without headlines. One of the few.

Looks like I'll finally have a "piano": checking out a 2nd-hand Alesis Q88 in an hour. It'll work out to about 10GBP/month before I have to sell it, which isn't too bad at all…

But it's not plugged in when it happens :o

Huh. That's really not impressive.

No, and my power sources are all very stable.
