Albert uttered

"As for cameras, I see them paralleling cars (I love cars too!!)

Zeiss = Mercedes  (A standard that most are judged against)
Leica = BMW (Self-proclaimed Ultimate "Photography" Machine)
C*non = Honda (Everybody on every block has one)
N*kon = Toyota (Everybody on every block who doesn't own a C*non ones 
one of these)

So what does Olympus = ?  I own an Audi A4 1.8Turbo Quattro.  (I love 
my car!!!) and I bought it because it was of the same build quality 
as the MB's and BMW's, and it was not a Honda or Toyota, and I 
thought it small, cute, compact, highly functional, had better 
features than others, and was by far the best bang for the buck out 
of the crowd, just like I feel the OM system is after serious 
research...  

I'm sure I'll hear some disagreements..."

I like your analogies, but I prefer to think of my OM-1 as more of a
Miata... not the snob appeal of a BMW Z3, say, but I guarantee it's as much
if not more fun to 'toss around'.
