As another battery pack chugs along on the wall as another new 20d owner (and canon convert) is born!

I just wanna play! Oooh, maybe I'll go fiddle with some of my A75 pics in Elements, I didnt even know we got a free copy of elements in the 20d package. I remember someone saying there was a way to 'upgrade' to CS for pretty cheap direct through adobe once you bought a 20d, gonna have to look into that.

Must .... not ...... go.... to the B&H used lens bonanza page......

You are a bad, bad man. 3 of the 4 lenses I intend to buy are on that list, and none of them are going to be in the budget for the next two months. Hell, I started saving for a DSLR back in the full price DRebel days =)

Hey, BTW, havent seen anyone else mention this, my 20D shipped with 1.0.4! Weird eh? They musta had that in the factory for exactly 2 days before swapping over to 1.0.5, now I just gotta figure out how to get the latest one to a card reader..

OK, I'm going to say this for Sam. You're a bad bad bad bad man. ;) Unfortunately for me my credit card is about to have a $0.00 balance on it. No looking at B&H for me. I want it to stay that way for 30 days.

That $0.00 balance is one of the sweetest sites you'll ever come across!

It was baout three years ago that I finally ZEROED a debt that I had carried around since the early '90s

Truly a breath of fresh air to be out from under that burden.

My wife and I just zeroed our debt this past month. What a breath of fresh air. I do not think I have been this relaxed since before I started looking for colleges my junior year in HS.

Yes, being debt free is a very nice thing. Now, if I can just resist the siren song of all those L lenses, the 1DMkII and the 20D. Ugghh... so many voices whispering in my ear.

I don't want to put you in debt, but when I bought my 20D and 100-400L, I just went online and picked up a Bank One card that's 0% interest for 12 months, nothing accrued. I'm only two months into it, but I have 50% of the goodies paid off, so 12 months is more than enough.

I had some events come up that I needed the equipment, so why not buy now and pay later if it's not going to cost you a dime extra?

Good if you have good credit and you are 100% sure about paying that card off within the 0% time...

I bought two used trucks a few years ago on a 0% Discover Card offer... I paid them off before the year so they offered me another 6 months @ 0% ... Bought and paid off some other smaller items...

So, I used about $10K of their money for 18 months and saved the interest and charges...

I'd do it again for the right reason... CC Co.'s don't like folks who pay on time...


OK, I admit it... I capture souls with my camera!

I got rid of my THREE Visa cards about this time last year. So thats one year living credit balance free. If I cant pay for it via american express or cash or paypal, I dont get it.

Never again.

It's a good feeling. It's GOOD to want things you cant afford right now, keeps ya motivated. Just wish I could do the same with my mortgage and car payment and all would be golden =)
