You are right But I have the one I use all the time, one set up with the quilting frame, my serger, the embroidery machine, and the one I found at a sale(one of the first computerized machines made), my grandmas Singer, the one I found in the cellar all mud turned out to be qute a find, and an old White someone gave me. I have found out I like older machines quite alot.Even if I don't use them all.Oh and I have the one we bought the kids to learn on a cheap Brother, that I love to quilt on.
