I know plenty of people who have bought digital cameras and either have a computer and don't use it or don't have a computer at all, however this doesn't seem to stop them from coming to the same conclusions as can be found in discussions all over internet forums. Retailers and labs are pushing digital cameras and digital image capture, it's difficult to find a decent film camera in any shop around here and the range of films is shrinking, doesn't bother me so much these days even though I still have big $$ in Leica and Mamiya film cameras.
