Thanks, DGM.

That's actually what I'm going to do.  I might try to score an OM 100/2.8
from the 'bay for now, and put the rest of the money in the "Big Glass"
envelope.  That 40-150/2.8 does look like the lens I really want.  As long
as it comes in at roughly that price level, I'm willing to cringe a bit and
bite the bullet.  If it comes in at twice that?  No way.  We'll see.
