I guess I need to add my count
I have 4 I use,FW, BLQP, Brother 1500, Elna; another out on loan to foster daughter, an old singer in cabinet, treadle downstairs, 2 I gave away and 2 sold at yard sale. Oh and my mid arm.

So far I have 8 and just passed up/on a singer treadle, I bought it for $10.00 but gave it to mom who only has 5 machines. I felt sorry for her. cant wait to get the numbers off her and find out how old it is. She gets it next week.

Of course, you won't be able to use the design disks for Touch & Sew machines, (unless you later get a slant-o-matic ;) ) or some of the feet intended for zig-zag, like the overedger.
But you can get a ruffler, cording/zipper, straight-stitch, bias tape applicator, narrow hemmer and sometimes one or more of the optional feet - like the edgestitcher, quilter, even feed, darning foot, tucker, etc. :)

I have got three and one serger. They are a Bernina 220, a Kenmore with more fancy stiches than the Bernina, an Elna that has embrodery functions (it mostly live in the closet) and an old White Serger. Someday, I'd like to get a serger with differential feed, but I don't use this one enough to justify it.
