I would find it hard to believe that the technology of the sensor at all
affects the SW...... in the sense that it is radically different....

Maybe there are subtle differences, but certainly a file is a file.  Process
it as you see fit......CCD or CMOS

Nikon has focused on the SW and seems to be doing pretty good.....   Leica
lags ....Simple fact.

Also, 3 letters: CCD. A major part of the digital camera R&D is on the post
processing software, and I am referring to getting the best RAW data out of
the sensor, not the JPG engine and Leica's expertise (so far) is on CCD
sensors. It would have taken them a lot longer to get a CMOS team going.
