I had my choice as to what machine I would like to have had. Of all things, I chose a Pfaff, tipmatic, 6150 over twenty years ago. It is not a computer. However, I can do everything I want to do including unique stitches, twin needle stitching and machine quilting just to mention a few. It has a dual feed built in so everything feeds evenly. Up to now, I have been quite satisfied with it. No worries about the mother board going haywire! Just my two cents worth. :roll:
