Korg stitched me up..............

Post by Pepperpotty »

Ordered a Kronos but instead got this cat in a box. Doesn't seem like very good value for money to me.

Awfully small cat for such a big box; should be at least a mountain lion I would think.

hehe that is what was in my box!

I do like the fur covered joy stick. the Norwegian Forest might over do it a bit though.

She's definitely either that or a Maine Coon. She adopted us after she got dumped by her owners and has been living the life of luxury ever since. The vet thinks she might be a Norwegian Forest but she also looks the spitting image of a Maine Coon.

Seriously though, loving my new Kronos. It was a big leap of faith for me to switch from an arranger to a workstation but after only a few hours of playing around on it my only regret is that I didn't buy one sooner.

If she has a triangle shaped face, she's a Norwegian Forest.
If she has a more flat face, she's most likely a Maine Coon.
They look alike a lot, even though they have different backgrounds.
Norwegian Forest Cats are the only pedigree cat that is shaped by mother nature.
All other pedigree cats are bred by humans.

I have a Norwegian Forest myself btw:

Well you did start out a number of years ago with a kiddy keyboard (was it a crappy Technics or what was it again?) and everyone laughed at you and now you've progressed to owning a Kronos! :)

Nobody's laughing now......

It was a Casio and it was my first keyboard when I was about 7 years old. It had lights above the keys that showed you which notes to play. It was awesome!
