I know a couple of people have recently purchased the Brother 750D.

Is there a resource (preferably on-line) that I could look at to determine what specific stitches/images are built into this machine? I've looked at the brother website, and other sites that carry brother but I can't find any specifics.

Or do you think it doesn't matter, because once you get an embroidery machine you add whatever you want for stitches via purchased cards or downloads?

BTW I'm not in a rush for this info. I'm just hope with sick kids looking around the web trying to find out if this is for sure the machine I think I want. I'm hoping I made a good choice and purchased a Kenmore 19233 first. Next I will be saving up for I hope the 750D.

WOW! Karen, thank you so very much for sharing this! Now I have a much better sense of what this machine can do!

Thank you also for your suggestions about sewing machines and embroidery machines. I've especially appreciated your input

Now I can just sit here and drool all day!

Ooooh I love those designs. Thanks for the links. My little stand alone doesn't have all of those but I do see it does have a little red work girl that I have on my machine because I have Redwork card. I only use the cards on my machine and mostly use it to sew items for the dgk's and use it a lot for monograms.
I do like the Taste of Disney card that came with my Brother made machine though.
If anyone wants to know what comes on the Taste of Disney card on some machines... besides all of the Minnie and Mickey Mouse it also has some Bambi, several Winnie the Pooh, Goofy, Tigger, Piglet, Mermaid, Dumbo, Beauty and the Beast, Tramp, Dalmations pup, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Lion from Africa and a Genie.
The emb. machines that come with the Taste of Disney Card as my machine will not accept any other Disney desgins and the card does not have the cute little chip monks or the mouse kids on the Taste of card.

I haven't embroidered anything yet on my 750D but my daughter liked these designs so I ordered it because it seemed like such a deal. I'm looking forward to trying them on a pair of her jeans:
