I'm really happy I didn't consult you before buying my CNX80 and MX20.
I'd never denigrate the 430/530 units, but I really prefer my CNX80.
TSO-C146 vs. TSO-C129 was a no-brainer choice for me,
and I was unwilling to wait for the (probably expensive) 430/530 =
upgrades.
And I certainly did compare the simulators before purchase, too.

For MFDs, however, I think the MX20 is better than the EX500.
If I'd been happy enough with the EX500, I wouldn't have had to
replace my radar to be able to control it through my MFD.
I've never been up close to an EX5000, though, so I don't know about it.
Its specifications read pretty well.

Your advice to choose what one likes best is certainly apt.
It's much more apt than adopting anyone else's prejudices.
My own prejudices are bad enough. :-[
