Whilst I'm sure your organ is very nice, how typical to start comparing your equipment with someone else. (Remembering katyjay's earlier comments about misinterpretation, I would like to stress that I at least am talking about musical instruments which have several manuals, stops and pipes. I can't vouch for anyone else).
So am I, my dear! What do you take me for? The full specification of my organ is available on the interweb for inspection. If you'd like to see photographs, I can provide those too

Ooh, yes please!

Now, now. You should know better than to ask a man to choose! We are fickle creatures, forced to roam far and wide in life looking for fragile vessels in need of careful handling....

Enlightened self-interest. In a similar vein, you may have noticed how, come the January sales, Mrs Bouffant's killer instincts come to the fore when shopping.
