We'll never know till it happens most these guys and gals have shot with M's
their whole lives and only very recently switched to DSLR's. While I don't
think many are all that rich at all I'm going to put it in writing in the
LUG archives right now that between a 4th and a 3rd of them will be shooting
with M9's by July 4 2010.
That's my projected guess.
Read it and weep.
You read it here first.

What's your projection? Three of them?
