I finally had time to read it. Great stuff! I learned a few new things, 
like Vangelis using the SDS-III... Having one of the first 100 kits 
mentioned in the article made me really feel like I was part of history. 
*geekish smile*

I still keep all fingers crossed for Dave's work against GC. I block new 
subscribers to our list on a monthly basis when they turn to us to get 
help with their crappy chinese kits. Serves them right... >:)

(A few have joined to learn what Simmons really is about though!)

In next issue, can't we hear more about the design history of certain 
features, please? (i e run generator, second skin function etc)

Last note: Pollard deserves some credit for their zone to pitch 
implementation and Star for their strike zone design (Synare 1). The 
late 70's sure were interesting times in the music business!
