Since everything sounds a lot smarter with a Dutch accent, this explanation of the technology inside the Yamaha AvantGrand piano sounds like some kind of brain science or rocket surgery to me. I mean, really, you can convince a lot of people to do a lot of crazy things if you can nail down a Dutch accent.

And speaking of nailing accents, this digital grand really nails the accent of an acoustic grand. For next year, Yamaha promises us a digital piano that can replicate the voices of Christopher Walken and Al Pacino.
