I also view this as suspect. 1995 Veloce versus new FSA/Shimano Dura Ace is not a valid comparison.
I have ridden both Dura Ace and Record thousands of miles. I like both and they both work very well. Moreover, less expensive gruppos nowdays work as well as the more expensive ones of yore. The ultimate decision is more of a matter of personal choice.
I will say this. I rode FSA/Wippermann/Record mix for two years. Campy does work better with Campy drive train components.
