A sideways sort of OM Christmas for me. I have almost every Oly/Zuiko
bit I need, and certainly more than I can justify - at least until I
want to do something photographically different. My photographic
frustration has been my old computer (333Mz, 96Mb, 10Gb). Photoshop just
doesn't sing and dance on that, more like crawl and whine. And all those
scanned images clogged up the hard drive.
Since Oly doesn't make computers........... I now have a non-Oly 2.8Gz,
1Gb, 120Gb XP machine. I also switched from a cable net connection to
DSL, significantly increasing internet speed. I'm back to sub-second
response time for most of my regular computer tasks most of the time.
Wheeee! I hope it will feel fast and capacious for another few years.
Now if I can just find the files on that old DOS system I designed
years ago and just got a support request on. And how does one set it up
to run under NT/XP? I knew all that a while ago. I guess that's the
problem with writing something so bulletproof that it can run for years
in multiple locations without any problems. Does make me feel good, though.
Oly content: all the film scanned and played with is exposed in Olys.

Isn't it about time we started to hear from those who got Olympus
goodies, even digital ones, or at least something photography-
related for Christmas? It's okay to brag a bit, even to gloat if
it was an OM-3Ti or some such.
