You are!  Though both the OM-3Ti/4Ti are readily available new, I didn't
mention them because: (a) everyone on this list is well aware of this fact,
and (b) these 2 bodies are rather expensive new, whereas it is not all
that difficult to find reasonably priced OM-2n's, OM-2S's, or OM-4/4T's
in good condition s/h (at least, here in the US).

Cheers (no gloom, no doom!),
