It is kind of silly to post Olympus v. Leica on a Leica group.  Each has
their own virtues.  If you want a small SLR than the Olympus is the way to
go.  If you prefer a small rangefinder than its the Leica.  Each has a top
flash sync speed of 1/60 for the Olympus v. 1/50 for the M6.  
Granted there are Leica optics that are superior to the Olympus, but when it
comes down to it, if your wallet can only afford beer, and you like beer,
you don't need to buy champagne.
