I still am totally not clear on why this is interesting to anyone. So 
perhaps I should start blogging about my negotiations with my wife, or 
perhaps what I had for breakfast.

I can understand that DPreview has a certain usefulness, but all those guys 
like Reichmann, Rockwell, whatever, they are just some people with opinions, 
of absolutely no relevance to me. The opinions of people on this list are 
actually much more valuable to me, at least certain people on this list.

Cheers,
Nathan
