I like Fuju, why?

Oddly enough I do like their digital cameras. The feature set seems
pretty good and their bridge cameras are quite nice. The output usually
seems pretty good.

You still couldn't pay me to put a roll of their film in my 35mm. The
saturation is always way off and they come out with a green tinge to my
eye.

Because I'm used to them and they suit me. There are loads of good
cameras out there all with their loyal followers who swear their make is
the only one worth using. What counts is the quality of the pictures you
end up with, and a lot of that is up to the person behind the camera. I
look foreward to seeing your pics, but why wait till next year? David

I'll admit to a DSLR, a compact and looking to get SWMBO a bridge camera
for christmas. Add that to a 35mm minor collection and when I've got a
little more money some medium format will be happening.

the

But I can't justify the cost when there is nothing wrong with my
camera
Still I can dream

Quite.

Except I never claimed to have had a home computer in the 1960s.

And it was supposed to be Bill Gates who said back in the 80s that he
didn't think anyone would need more than 64k of RAM. But maybe that's an
urban legend. I've got Bill Gates' book - I'll have to look it up,
though I'm not sure if all of it is to be believed. He claims to have
written the BASIC interpreter for all the desktop computers at that
time.

Bully for him. I hope you were impressed.

Writing BASIC interpreters is trivial.

I never claimed it wasn't trivial. ;-)

Whilst on cameras, has anyone tried having a "photo book" printed from
digital images?

I have just had one done by Lidl's photo service and the results are very
good, and at what I consider a fair price.
