Speaking only for my Akai, the MPC 2000, yeah, it has a pretty large 
display,
and you can do a surprising amount of processing to the sample visually 
(i.e.
looking at the wave form, rather than going strictly by ear).  

Does anybody have any particular opinions on the MPC 2000? I really love 
mine,
and find it extremely easy to use, but I've heard non-specific negative
rumblings from others about them. (on the order of "oh, you went with the
Akai? that's too bad", without going into any reasons).
