The madness and pathy is YOURs Gary, no one else's.  You obviously have some
vendetta against Contax and the N Digital, and refuse to see the merits of
it.  That's your prerogative, but call it for what it is.  YOU made a
mistake, and picked a camera that didn't meet your needs.  So what?  I've
bought dozens of cameras that ended up not serving the needs I bought them
for, but I hardly go around bludgeoning them every chance I get.

No, it's not the same.  You get the image with the N Digital, and the image
is exceptional.  Your analogy does not hold.
