John - I just made the jump from a 6 needle 4-head machine to 2 2004 Amaya's 
and have a thread started on it.  I was VERY hessitant to make the change. That 
said, I am VERY happy with the trade up!  First off, the quality of the sew if 
far superior to what I was getting from my much older machine.  2nd, the older 
machine slowed down a LOT during fill-stiches.  With the Amaya, I sew between 
900-1000 SPM and it basically maintains that stich speed through all points of 
the design.  Thus, I'm actually sewing much faster in aggrogate than simply a 
750 spm versus 900 spm, again, because the Amaya maintains speed throughout the 
pattern.  

I was able to go from 4 hrs hand-off training to production very quickly.  
Switching to the Amaya is not that bad.  Plus, I and many others check this 
forum many times a day and will gladly help with questions.  If you are handy 
with Window's type software, "running" the Amayas from a computer is easier to 
grasp.  As a default, once you load the design into the machine you can 
basically do everything from the keypad if that makes you more comfortable.  
For me, I find the tracking laser INCREDIBLY HELPFUL and couldn't see 
embroiderying without one again.  If you are going to be doing your own 
digitizing, the speed from which you can go from test sew, alter digitizing, 
test sew, is amazingly fast compared to the 6 needle.  I think you will save 
every bit of early "training" time or fustration initially, by the speed and 
quality of the sew later.  

Go for the Amaya and don't look back!
Thanks,
