The Propeller Island disc is a waste of money.  There's absolutely no 
comparison between it and the Pinder rom IMO.  That disc (Akai format) is 
about as good as it gets short of having access to a real tron.  In the 
mix it will fool most of the punters most of the time, and even the 
ocassional list-member.  I bought my copy used for $150 and thought it was 
money well spent.  You might also try the M-tron VST plugin, while you're 
investigating.
