Heard that the mini is going to be discontinued. Has anyone else heard this? I just bought a mini. If this is true, will BGE keep warranty parts for possible warranty claims?

    That rumor has been around for some time as well as the one about the small also being abandoned. Now let's analize the possibility...should BGE continue production of a marginally popular MIni as well as a often time hated Small? OR why not combine the features of both and then market the Maxi/Mini as GOD's gift to the faithfuls and charge $600? Get my drift yet?

    As for pieces and parts for warranty issues I don't have a clue, but for BGE's reputation sake I sure hope they do! BTW just for the record, yes I do own both a Mini and a Small and have no intention on spending more money to buy a M/M which I don't feel I need nor want to pay $100 more than what my Mini and Small cost me. Clear?

    Fleetwood Mac dedicated an entire Album to this. Just Saying... Even if they  86 the Mini & SBGE they, as a reputable company, will honor warranty claims. I wouldn't worry too much about it. 
    Keeping it Nostalgic like the Mini & Small.....

    I sure hope that they dont discontinue the mighty mini. I really like the little fellow. It will be a sad day if it goes the way of the buffalo.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
