OK, THAT DOES IT.  Are we going to take pictures or play Nintendo?

Galen Rowell, the primo-deluxe photographer/writer that we all know and
love, is actually quite the minimalist.  At least that is what he claims.
<g>  After rereading some of his articles  this morning I almost decided to
keep the OM system and buy an OM-3T.  But then again, he isn't giving away
his F5 anytime soon...

There is something to be said for simple elegance.  The OM system may not
give you billions of electronic tools, but it is probably still the most
usable for the advanced amatuer doing landscapes and other artsy stuff.

Unfortunately for me, it isn't the landscapes that make the money for me,
so therefore I must have the right tools for the job.
