I'm suffering from computer meltdown, so I only have a moment.  I just this 
morning ordered the new Dell super computer, and now I'm struggling on with a 
crippled laptop, which will run for about 20 minutes before the fans go crazy 
and it overheats and everything ... just ... goes ... jerky ... and ... really 
... slow.  Since I'll have to set up a new computer sometime next week, then 
install software for many days thereafter, I'm not going to be posting much of 
anything here for some time.

But I had to weigh in on this: The E-1 has a dedicated DOF button.  I use it 
often.

And rumors of focusing problems, particularly with the E-330 and long lenses, 
are greatly exaggerated.  I think it's folks who don't know what they're doing. 
 I've got both my E-1 and E-330 set to use only the central focus point, and if 
folks are weak and shaky and wobbly and wave the thing around, it's constantly 
trying to focus on stuff at different distances.

Fans getting angry now.  Gotta go.

Oh, by the way, Evan: Welcome back, neighbor.
