Thanks for the comments.  In summary, everyone agrees that they
are all fine lenses (which we all knew or we wouldn't be on the
list), and that the 35mm, 50mm, 90mm kit makes a lot of sense
on an M camera.  A lone "speed freak" dissented with the
suggestion that the 90 Summicron be replaced with a 75 Summilux.

As an aside, I wanted to put in my vote for Tamarkin and Co. as
a respectable new/used dealer.  When I was in college I had the
honor of studying with Richard Benson (the printer) who set quite
a few of my photographic beliefs on end.  Somewhere on my recovery
trail, I bought my first Leica and Hasselblad from Tamarkin and Co.
I have never regretted the decision, and have always admired their
service. 

Well, there's a fog over the city which I must take advantage of...  
Again, thanks for the advice.  I'm off to pick up my M6.

-Anand
