breakbeats -- the quest for a groovebox

["jimfowler" <jimfowler@prodigy.net>]

i'm assuming guys like aphex twin, squarepusher, muziq, etc. are all using
their computers for the beats, but are there any hardware boxes that will
produce good breakbeat-style beats?  that's mainly what i'm looking for:
breakbeats and down-tempo r&b stuff.

if only i had a titanium powerbook...
