Anyone got a Blofeld?

Just ordered myself one 10 minutes ago off ebay... I can't believe how cheap these things are considering theyre basically a prettier, more powerful microQ. and the microQ was a steal at 1.5 times the price 
Funny little story as to how I came to want such a thing:
Had a rather umm.. intense night last night.. there were hyper-fluorescent fractalline insectoids among other things
.. to give you an idea of how far out things were!
Anyway . . So..Some non-space/time men in their non-space/time ships visited me during a rather intense experience toward the end of last night ...and thats when I somehow learned to reverse my visualisations of sounds and use visualisation to create synthetic sounds
I dont know how this happened. . I've always kind of visualised music and thought of it as images, pictures, etc... But up until now its been very vague.. last night it was so intense that I could match every little alteration in pitch and effects, synthesis etc.. to an aspect of the picture. . - When a new sound came along, there was a new 'thing' that began materialising with very specific qualities - I guess giving enough detail now for it to actually be a useful way of thinking about musical ideas for me.. Maybe Ive just completely lost my mind finally
So now back to earth this morning. . and in the process of buying a synthesiser. . I was going to get an evolver, for some nice analogue sounds. . but after last night. . I really think I need the widest range of possibilities rather than a nice warm fuzzy sound. .
And so thats how I ended up ordering a blofeld instead of an evolver
So.. Is anyone else using one here? what do you think of it?
