Anybody got current information? > Regards, > Ed Foote RPT There is no media news today, otherwise I'd have already put it on the List. I have my AOL account programmed to send me any news about any piano manufacturer from any of the news services. The last reported news was two days ago, July 24. That was about two board member resignations. Baldwin is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, that is not news. It happened a couple of months ago. They are reorganizing. The recent inside news from Rob Goodale was that they had large, unsold inventories of obsolete electronic keyboards and pianos which were returned. I think they probably also have large inventories of brand new pianos and maybe other products too. Since the market for them is so weak, they'll have to sell them for whatever they can get. This should be an opportunity for some people who otherwise could not get a piano, to get a brand new Baldwin. I also hope some of them get to Cuba. Schools and churches in poor US communities should get them too. Bill Bremmer RPT Madison, Wisconsin ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
