>Or, for a real true life horror story, "The broken synth that ate all
the spare time."

I think I'm in the sequel right now.

I have just got hold of Polymoog as payment for a small job I have just
done... and after the first five hours of trying to get the thing work,
I am seriously thinking of bursting into tears.

I have never seen a keyboard action so badly affected by age. I would
say 10% of all the notes actually work, and the only way to get them
going is to hit them very very hard. I can now see why Gordon Reid
(Sound on Sound)) despises his so much.

But it has got two working uA726 inside it... :-)
