Subject: [Leica] M9! Ted's comments on quality and clients

Many years ago a friend of mine heard about a wonderful, year-old Jaguar for
sale.  It came from a fellow who wanted to trade it in for a new model.

My friend was somewhat skeptical about the deal, and asked why the person
was selling a year-old car.  Was it a lemon?

No, it was in perfect condition.

The seller was 95 years old and wanted to have a new Jaguar.

The moral of this story: Ted, buy the M9--now!  In the scheme of things it's
a miniscule purchase.  Plus, you can always trade it in next year <g>.

60th, wow.  Congratulations!  How often does that happen?  In my case I
would need a few lenses in addition to the M9 -- my last vision would be my
spouse standing over me and saying, tell me again how you reload this SOB.
