Well, most probably for different reasons than yours I refuse to move 
out the OM system. This, as long as film is manufactured.
Go figure, just bought my first OM 4 body.

I don't like the idea that a photograph must need a computer.
A photograph should exist by itself, as a material object.
An almost simple chemical reaction.

They may be digitized if one needs to do it.
It certainly may improve the original but complexity grows; the more 
complex, the more likely to fail at some point (cost? reliability?).

Waiting for Monday to come, to go buying another 20 rolls of Provia 100F 
while available.
Film supply (color reversal film, that is) is critical in this small city.
But I could get accustomed to brazilian Fujicolor C41, it's plenty of it

I like computers nonetheless, but I don't like to feel compelled to have 
one to take a picture.

FWIW

Fernando.
