[Leica] Marshall's old M4

[Paul Chefurka <Paul_Chefurka@pmc-sierra.com>]

I pulled the image of JM's brassed-out M4 out of the Leica Brochure, and
converted it for use as my Windows wallpaper.  Now whenever I minimize all
my apps I'm reminded of how much shooting I'd like to be doing - enough to
make a camera look like that.  Count me as one of the number that loves that
beat-to-ratpoop look of a well-used black paint M...  And as I also think
that the M4 is the best-looking M ever built, I get palpitations just
looking at that photo.  Better'n old Farah Fawcett posters :-)
