    Despite all improvements, the former always had, has and will continue to
    do so (assuming we're talking about alternative instruments which are
    technically ok). The latter requires a reasonable setup and maintenance,
    but as the question probably more of is whether you want/need to use a
    whammy bar or not, in the former case you will take care of that anyway
    instead of feeling it wasn't worth the bother.

    Have fun with it!

    In general, a fixed bridge will have better overall stability, just because
    of the fact that one moves, and the other doesn't. That said, a good guitar
    w/ a good, properly set up trem will be better than a cheap guitar w/ a
    crappy fixed bridge and a crappy neck.

    Here's an odd little theory. With Neal Morse's departure and Nick
    D'Virgilio's impending promotion to lead vocals, I was struck with a
    comparison of sorts with Genesis. After a double concept album (Lamb),
    Gabriel (thought to be the band's core) left abruptly. Phil Collins who did
    a few lead vocals obviously took over. Very similiar.

    Now, it would be very funny if the Beard had a similar increase in
    popularity now much like Genesis did. Although hopefully they steer clear
    of the pop crap Genesis evenutally churned out (Invisible Touch and We Can't
    Dance). If the Beard can manage an album like say Trick of the Tail, I
    would be quite happy.

    OK, that was my theory...too much free time I guess.

    Rob

    I think its especially interesting you bring this up since D'Virgilio
    played on one of Genesis' albums.
