This shot from the awful new Eurythmics video shows two elderly EnglishBritish people standing in front of a sizeable pile of elderly gear - check out the Akai S612 with the 'toast rack' disc drive. (Thanks, Shawn)

Admittedly, I actually thought that it was an earlier picture.
They're elderly, but they look great for their age.
I also thought that it was an older picture - these guys look great. I can only imagine that this shot is going to be greenscreened onto footage of even more old synths. :)
I've also got one of those old Akai S612 samplers with the unorthodox disc storage system. I've thought of picking up the AX-60 that it was designed to be used with, but as I already have an AX-80 I haven't been any hurry. Any recommendations?
Also, do any of you have details of the rumored modifications to add more RAM, or where in the hell to get more of those "quickdisk" floppies?
(as a quick follow up to my last post 2 seconds ago)
Just noticed that someone had already identified the PH-830 incorrectly as an SBF-325. It's most assuredly the PH-830 (and it's missing the lfo speed knob).
