I stand behind the rationalization that a better camera will making my mediocre photography skills better. Any great picture I have taken has been an accident, or a surprise to me.

lots of crooks selling crap online
In the digital camera biz, it usually means this. I use B&H Photo and Video as a yardstick; if someone is underselling them by a large amount it's probably too good to be true.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I have a friend with a D70. It's extremely tasty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
B&H's price for the D70 isn't much more than the D50. But I already have and use SD cards in three devices. I'm assuming CompactFlash rocks because of higher capacity -- how does it rate costwise with SD?

Should I be able to hook my receiver up to the pre-amp?
If the tuner has RCA outs, then I suppose you can treat it as just another input to the pre-amp.
And could my sound problem actually be that my speaker wire is frelled? (The speaker that is getting sound was the left channel; I switched things around and now the speaker that is getting sound is the right channel.)
Switched things around how?

Off the top of my head from staring at the case in Fry's last week, I think it's cheaper.

Hey. New board.
how does it rate costwise with SD?
Slightly cheaper. Not a lot. And the capacities are pretty similar: though CF has a 2 GB card, for example, and SD doesn't. it's quite expensive in comparison to the 1 GB. I think.

Our wings are not tired
CF actually even has 4 GB cards now. I've used them for audio devices.

Art Crawl!!!
jon, I switched the right channel to the "b" speaker Uh, slot and suddenly all sound was coming from the right channel and none from the left.
I'll see if I can figure out if (after getting the right wires) I can hook up the receiver through the pre-amp.

Is there a decently intuitive shareware program for OSX that will let me make VCD's out of AVIs and MPGs?
