Hi all, This is my first post since December, when I 'left the room' to get my monitor repaired. As it happened my '98 model 17in IBM was shorting out in its magnetic yoke and a repair was uneconomical, new monitors are so cheap. However I was rather PO'd as it was only a few months outside of its 3 year warranty.
A combination of a mostly rain-free summer and my boisterous 2YO son has kept me away from my desk for more than short sessions of skimming PDML posts, but the new Pentaxes have drawn me out at last. Too early to judge either camera's merits or future IMO. I can't see myself buying either as we've just more than doubled our mortgage to improve and enlarge our home. However I'll be watching their progress with much interest to guage how Pentax is being seen by the whole market, and not just the PDML naysayers. Regards, Anthony Farr
