Kurzweil KSP-8?

[James R. Coplin]

Hmmm, I'll keep all this in mind.  I was kind of hoping for some more sheen
so maybe the KSP isn't for me.  The last 5 I've watched on ebay have gone
for right around $1000 which seems like a good enough price to check it out.
My guess is that this is as far as these will fall so I won't lose much if
anything if I have to turn around and sell it if it doesn't work out.
