JPop is an incredibly talented designer with a history of beautiful machines having terrible code. Cam Silver rescued CV from the ashes, but TOTAN still sucks monkey nuts and SWEp1 is, well, SWEp1. Was in on Magic Girl, but was expected to fork over a ton of nonrefundable money on faith without seeing so much as a pf layout. I backed out at that point. I predict BHZA and MG will each have their unique high points, but that neither will have the feel and build quality of a piece of commercial equipment. And after all, isn't that what it's all about? To OWN the coin slot?

@Rob: if you're right about the quality, you're right about your second prediction, no doubt!
