Now you're blaming him for complaining that a brand-new Leica malfunctions? Yes, one should try a new product ASAP. But you've badly deflected the point of his post. P.S. IMHO you're wrong, a Leica is not like a toaster or vacuum cleaner any more than a Ferrari or Porsche is like a common consumer product. It is of course a tool but it is for many, obviously you are not among them, as a legendary tool. Best, Seth LaK 9 - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
