Subject: [Leica] Leica ownership

For us "old timers" who started with the Barnack or M, there are certain...
"pride of ownership:" the Barnack are tiny and jewel like, and the M is
really a masterpiece of form and functions. Now with the digital M,
especially the M9, existing Leica owners are upgrading as finance permits.
However, there is also a large group of new digital M only owners who are
getting the digital M because it's a status symbol or that "it's the best."
In any case, I wonder if people still have that wonderment of "gee, this is
a marvelous piece of engineering" when they are using their M9 or M8.
