I know, I know. You make it sound very tempting - which it is. But as with so many things in life, it’s a question of priorities. I live on my own and a fair bit of my time is engaged in essentials. And then there is physical exercise, walking, cycling. And so the list goes on. All around the interior walls of my domicile, I have affixed a sign in large print, “Get up and do it”. In other words, “Don’t just think about it, Do It.”
I’ve just had a look at my profile and it tells me, much to my surprise, that come next December, I shall have been a member of this forum and an owner of my s970 for 7 years. I settled on this instrument because I wanted something that would help keep my mind active, be creative, and give me satisfaction. Another stipulation was that I should never be fully conversant with all the things that it could do. So far, it has met those requirements exactly, and I see no reason to expect it to not continue to do so.
I am a technologist. Technical subjects attract me (I wrote my first Assembler code program on the university mainframe 50 years ago). If I bought an SX900, I have no doubt that given time, I should eventually learn how to do most of what I can do on my s970, and a few other things as well. Cost is not a problem, but time is. I cannot justify it. I could be spending it on something of more value. An activity on my bicycle, an experience new to me, a visit. The list is endless.
And it includes finding something new in my beloved Yamaha Arranger.
Thanks all the same,
Alan
