[net.cooks] Cooktops...

I'm interested in replacing my current stove with
a more modern cooktop; one with a grill/griddle,
and four elements.  I already have overhead hood
ventilation, so Jenn-Air down draft ventilation is
not a needed feature.  Unless of course there is some
significant advantage of down draft ventilation that
would warrent the change.  Any opinions on cooktop
brands or style of ventilation?  My old cooktop is
a Thermador, and sizewise, Thermador makes a unit
that will exactly fit my current counter cut-out.
Nice, but is Thermador as good as any other brand
(or vice-versa)?

Thanks,
