As I see it, the OM is like NEXT computers, founder of Apple, and the betrayor
of his own company. And now, he produces animated movies using his new baby
PIXAR...

I see the future as a merge between OLYMPUS and possibly PENTAX (and maybe
COSINA). any comments? In these time of mergers, few can survive alone. i even
see leica and CONTAX doing some "close" research in the near future...mark my
words, someday you'll be able to say that I said that.
