Aside from all jokes, bananas are good but MPC's give a different type of nutrition. Anyhoo, being serious here, you can add an external cd rom drive to read CD Rom sound libraries for the MPC or get an external SCSI hard drive up to 1 GIG in size for the old 2000, I got one. I wouldn't recommend opening it up and modifying anything, it's not very simple inside and not alot of room for stuff. I am sure a laptop harddrive will fit and maybe even a fan, but to make all the connections for it might damage your board if you don't do it right. If you're not a skilled technician then don't bother. Go with external devices {aside from akai 8output card, fx card, flash rom (if you even want to spend on it, most won't pay that type of grip for something like that)}. If you're a baller, you can afford a nice custom paint job at forat.com and be the envy of the forums... or NOT...

Like an mpc with a big **** circular saw type thing attached to it, we could show the host making tight tracks, and at the same time he's slicing tomatoes perfectly. Or we could do like those infomercials where these doofuses are sitting around the table saying how whatever gadget is so great, except they're all banging their heads while they enjoy a smoothie...yeah that's better, a beat machine/juicer combination. With one hand you're layering high hats, with the other you're juicing an orange...this is big money, who wants to draw up the design?

Im thinkin that we could sell a program that will make people millions of dollars.

Hit the pads and then go out and sell real estate. What do you think?
