Get over it, this is the Pentax Discuss Mail List not the Pentax Stop Complaining and Praise Us List. And before you go off and suggest that Pentax wouldn't be taking notice of this minuscule sample of Pentax users I'll pre- empt you with the truth, history has proven that they do in fact listen. Just think for a moment about the things you say. Obviously those of us who have been using Pentax since you were in diapers and before have a little more mentally and physically invested in the brand than you. And not all of us have the financial clout to just go off and change systems like you may have. Popping your head up on a long established list and slandering a great deal of the list population isn't likely to make you friends. And if you've actually read and understood many of the posts here you'll find that's just what we are friends, all with a common set of concerns and experience and camaraderie. We don't need newbies telling us to " Stop friggin complaining you whiney gear whores" Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
