Wow this seems really biased.
I have a very nice LP12 and a very nice TD150. I bought the LP12 for less than $500, and I bought the TD150 for $50. If I had to pay again, I would shell out the $500 for the Linn. Although they might look the same, they are not the same. Everything on the Linn seems to be made to a higher standard. Bearing, plinth, subplinth, armboard, platter, subplatter, powersupply, and motor are of a higher quality.
I am not a linnie (I think that there are quite a few deck out there that can stomp a linn), but I do think that the Linn has higher quality parts and a better sound than a TD150.
It is obvious from the original post that the soundnut has not owned a Linn before. I would suggest that he gives it a shot. they can be picked up on the used market for quite cheap, and I think he might like it more than the TD150
