Ten.years ago, many were about to wrap the company in black crepe. As long as they continue to produce high quality equipment and sell it profitably, bless 'em. If I were a pro and needed to shoot digitally, id definitely own an M9.

Why should I if other companies have great chips to capture Leica glass on? I also have my doubts about Blackstone. What do they know about quality and art? MBAs with sensibilities? That's like professional wrestlers being artists. MBAs are bottom line dregs. Quick profit guys and gals. Quickie people. They may make a killing with Leica, both earning lots of money and doing in a quality product. I find it hard to believe they have Leica's best interest at heart. The M10 will come. It's hard to believe I would buy one. Doug _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
