A fairly interesting discussion/history on the New York and Hamburg piano
makers, with a 20 question T and F.
(Caution: Some of the questions are of the form of Steinway is X%, where the

The best pianos are made

To badly paraphrase Dorothy Parker:

If somebody left a Stoneway or Steinway B- in my dust under the Christmas
Tree, I wouldn't be in the least surprised.
