I watch the various sewing shows on PBS on Saturday mornings and I watch the hosts of those shows with some of those machines. On the embroidery machines once they have the hoop set up it looks like about all they do is push a button and watch the machine work, I'm guessing at some point they change thread colors as needed too. I'm not quite sure how to word it but basically the machines are so automated that it's a completely different skill set to use one. Instead of manually providing the guidance to the machine you program it and stock it with the materials needed to complete the task. Those machines are more like computers that sew than they are sewing machines with computers inside. Pretty cool technology but for me it would remove too much of the "hands on" aspect of sewing that I enjoy.
While playing around on this thread I did find this site. It has a very nice collection of Bernina models and is worth at least a quick look around.
