Steve: Exactly I was being low on the price side, I not saying digital 
the best or film is all I am saying is digital has open up a whole new 
ball game as far as the mom and pop taking photos of the babies. With 
digital I can shoot look picture looks crappy I reshoot get rid of old 
picture. cant do that with fim. film has to be developed. In the 
developing countries they want what is the new and best as they see it.  
The 4 dollar development fee is for the majority of the people who 
are'nt looking to have fine art prints, they just want some 4x6 or 5x7 
amd maybe a few 8 x10 of junior playing football or the missies doing 
her thing in school.  Digital gives them that way, shoot go home print 
be done. or take to local photo shop in the store down the week put in 
chip pick what you want print for 30 cents american. its the wave that 
the third world will be doing.  And as far as LCD go in todays they have 
several LCD on sale for the low cost of 199 to 299 15" and 17" no longer 
more expensive than a CRT.   Anthony
