    Did the board change in horizontal size?

    Last few days, I'm showing a skinnier width to the forums and the messages within. I made no conscious change in my setup.

    Why visiting your dealer can be a mistake - Alpa STC

    All I can think of when reading this thread is the last part of The Lord's Prayer, to wit: "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory. for ever and ever. Amen"

    FS: Leica M8.2 - Black

    Hi John, Forgive me for loading up your advert, but when I was a newly married guy (53 years ago), I thought my new bride was dumb as dirt about my amateur radio equipment. I bought a new receiver shortly after our honeymoon, unbeknownst to her, secure in my thinking that she'd never...

    Jesus Christ

    Like it a lot, Rafa. Reminds me of our experience attending the Passion Play in Oberammergau, Germany in 1970. This was when the dramatization was 'open air'. A severe thunderstorm was brewing in the mountains that were in the distance and directly behind the crucifixion scene. The depiction...

    FW 2.005 for M8 is available

    I installed it in my M8.2 this morning and noticed that though the instructions said that the User Profiles would be lost and have to be defined again, mine didn't. The update went w/o any problems, AND my User Profiles persisted. Anyone else notice this?

    John Stovall Has Passed

    Terribly sad. Only knew John for his contributions to this board. His referrals to articles of interest elsewhere were always worthwhile reads. We'll miss you, John. RIP.

    I am NOT going to sell my M9!

    I think I may be as happy to see you not selling it, Tom, as you are. :) I winced, visably, when I saw your advert for it. Ya see, I categorize (no make that "profile") people to a fare thee well and I had you pegged as a Leica guy. There's something about fit, finish and use that gets into a...

    GF1 Macro.. what a bargain.

    I'll say! But, like all the really good photographers out there, Jim, you are able to extract interesting and captivating images from whatever you have access to at the time. Nice job!

    M9 Firmware Update, Monday, 3/15

    Seems a good set of features. I figure that I'll be a candidate for an M9 about when they have fulfilled all orders, worldwide, and are on dealer's shelves for immediate purchase. Of course that's about when the M9.2 or M10 will be announced. :p

    Where is Bob, our mod in MA?

    Ok, you're excused since the absence was workshop created. ;) I won't attempt any coupling between attic and belfrey :rolleyes: since they really aren't the same thing.

    Where is Bob, our mod in MA?

    Is he otherwise occupied? My addled brain from recent back surgery seems to recall something about him going somewhere. Too lazy to search. Enjoy his very authoritative posts.

    The M9 arrived a day early

    Good going, Don! I'll be surprised if it isn't a keeper. Bottlebrush in bloom already?! I'm just down in Sahuarita and no sign of bottlebrush blooms here, yet.

    What's the deal with that car graveyard? Is it a designated place where it is allowed?

    SOLD: Leica 35mm Summicron ASPH 6-bit coded L

    Re: FS Leica 35mm Summicron ASPH 6-bit coded L I know you don't mean that price, Tom. If you do, you'll be overwhelmed with buyers, including me. :)

    Yikes! Why oh why do they do this

    Re: Sigh..... Probably not, Jim. Leica has what they have to sell and that's it! If they can gussy it up to appeal to the 'carriage trade' with a small amount of extra production time and money and achieve an inordinate profit, what's the harm? Those of us who run in more moderate circles...
