I'd love to get my grubby hands on some serious equipment - mainly because of the potentiometer fetish I seem to have developed. But at the same time, I'm all for making the most of what you have. If you can only manage low fidelity (whatever fidelity means when, like me, you rarely touch a "real" instrument), then bloody well stick the lo-fi badge on it and go with it. Windows users are probably perfectly suited to making glitch music, for example ;) James > Thorsten Wilms > -- "I'd crawl over an acre of 'Visual This++' and 'Integrated Development That' to get to gcc, Emacs, and gdb.
