Thanks for your input though, for somebody in a different purchasing situation, this might be a great way to do it.

It is really difficult to get objective information / advice on the subject of newer mpcs, even here, and on the mpc forum.

it just depends on your needs. if you're just trying to get away from things like disks and you don't care about 24-bit (only in the 4000 and 5000) then just get a 1000. I had a 2000xl but hated disks and not enough memory so i got a 1000 and loved it because of the USB i could just drag and drop sounds from the computer, but when i heard the difference between the 16-bit to 24-bit i had to get it...
