I really like my M's so I'd probably buy an M7 and a 35 f2, 50 f2, 90f2 to replace the lenses I use the most. I like lenses with the same aperture. But I think I'd replace my SLR with a 1Ds. I love the 100 APO for the R8 but the digital back for the R8/9 just doesn't look like the real thing to me. Canon really "gets it" for digital photography as their bottom line shows. The Canon lenses are pretty darn good. Of course I'd replace my computer with a dual-G5. Since my PowerBook is always with me I wouldn't have to replace it but if I did I'd buy a 17" G4 since my briefcase will handle it.
