The Dante Stella site was interesting and fun. I loved his amusing 
quote page:


  "Olympus Company, leading camera manufacturer of the nation, has alone 
turned out more than 2 million Pen cameras already. Moreover, it would 
not be too much to say that its depicting power which easily allows 
enlargement to quarter size and its inexpensive film cost have 
fascinated all camera fans. And the advent of the half size was quite 
timely. The day is approaching, yes, close at hand when 18x24mm will 
become the standard size for negative film."

  — Olympus Pen F promotional literature, 1964


The 4/3 system pronouncements are eerily similar.
