Did you happen to notice that is NOT a Nikobn release announcement.
Simply a rumor.

NO! RichA is wrong! RichA, the one who can predict how well
any camera will ever sell, has been fooled by a rumor! RichA,
the single expert of the world on what cameras are worthy and
which are not, has been tripped up! This simply cannot be!!!


I'll go commit suicide now, my world has been completely
shattered. The shutter has closed on me; I'll go get myself
pelted to death by expensive prime lenses. I'll guillotine off
my fingers and toes with the electronic shutters of compact
cameras till I bleed to death. I'll look into a mirror lens
with a basilisk on the other side till I turn to stone.

I rather like "whilst". It flows better in some sentences when used
instead of "while". Used by an American, though, it could be taken as
a pretentious affection. Some Brits get their knickers in a twist
when fellow Brits use Americanisms, but I see nothing particularly
wrong with cross-pondial sharing.

Except "u"s, They can keep their extraneous "u"s.


Come on Tony! What happened to your sense of humour?
