Why - oh - why are we so happy when we see anything which says that Oly
is great. Even more, why do *we* promote them? Do we know Oly is good? Of
course. Are we gonna sell our Oly? Not likely.. Will Olympus hear us and
start boosting the OM line with new cameras and mass produced (thus,
cheap) lenses? Not likely? So?.. What are we doing? Any Oly promotion at
best increases the prices, including second hand. Which is baaaad...:-(
Shhh... Keep quiet. We all have a lot more OM to acquire.
