I would love to get the Horizon 7700 also but I don't 'need' it. I have the 6500 which I love. Can't justify a 'want' for a 'need' right now with the economy etc.
Plus, I still don't have a Featherweight and I really want one of those to take to quilt classes. As much as I love my 6500 and all its functions and fancy stitches, it is such a bear to take to class.
