"Picture Book"

So, I was at "NonComm '05" about this time last year as a volunteer for XPN, and I brought my camera along.

Between the fun (and very hard work) that all of us station volunteers did, I only managed to take a few snaps, and that was one (or two) of the entire crew at the registration table.

Why? Because I ran out of film.

Yeah, I know, and everyone did stop laughing.

Eventually.

And you know what? I think that picture is still sitting on my roll of film that's still residing in my Canon Elph, which I've yet to develop!

For someone that's been online since '92 (and remembers Windows 3.1 and pre-Pent PCs), I think it's high time I move into the new millenium and bought a digital camera.

Now, before my core readership (waving at Trev!) busts a gut, please know something...I can now buy a great camera for under $200.

And, if 6 MP, 3X optical zoom and the rest of those goodies don't make you drool for that price, well, then, damn...might want to check your pulse to see if it's still working, and all.

It is amazing how the quality of the digitals has got so much better, so close to professional, and the prices have gotten better.

Just so bloody confusing!
