AB,
What defines 'realistic'...well, you're right. I had, at the time, no idea what this gentleman had, or what he wanted to do. So, from that, I took the basics of building a workable, higher quality system from scratch, using a new, mid line computer, a Ketron SD2, MIDI and Audion interfaces, a controller keyboard and some other stuff to come up with an answer.

It was, to me, a 'realistic' number to give what he wanted, basically starting from scratch.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
