There you go making assumptions again. Kind of how you assumed that you can 
 google a bunch of information about BiroTron keyboard action. Look Dave, 
it was  a cool concept that few people care to argue about. Very ingenious 
machine.  Now why don't you stop being so defensive? Thou dost protest too 
much, and thou  art becoming annoying.
 
This is a MELLOTRON LIST!!! We can discuss BiroTrons, but we can only argue 
 about Mellotrons, Scotch and beer (and that doesn't include comparing 
Mellotrons  to BiroTrons. I personally hereby raise your arm in victory and 
agree that  BiroTrons had great keyboards. As I recall, Edsels had really 
comfortable  seats.
 
Please go start a BiroTron group. Then those that wish to can all sign  up 
and argue which of the 13 BiroTrons had the best keyboard action. Too bad  
about the production BiroTrons having vertical cassettes and all. 
 
I have found that one can set out a nice lunch on top of a Mellotron. Try  
that on a BiroTron.

When I  said "a Birotron in a Mellotron (repair)shop is faster than the 
mellotron  sitting next to it, I assumed that most people would consider that 
the  mellotron would also be in for repair and would also be of a similar  
vintage.
