so now you have first hand experience on why the technology does matter, at least in certain situations, and why for those that it matters, not having the technology means you're not going to be able to put the bread on the table.

I learned to use the AF of the 20D to full effect which helped greatly (you wun, Herb). It does an amazing job of tracking moving subjects. I hear the
1DII is miles ahead of it too (that's why I hate you, Cot).  The 5fps also
helped get "the" shots and I was never wanting for follow up shots, it was
always ready unless the card was full..  There were about 6 1DII users and
it sounded like a machine gun nest. I borrows a 600mm lens for some static
shots.  OH MY GOD! (I gotta get me one of those!). The guy leading the
workshop, Greg Downing, was instrumental by providing really goos advice on
how to shoot birds in all situations; I learned things about composition I
never even THOUGHT about. What about the guy pushing the release? I'd say
he is learning to be patient and wait for the right situations.
