Clearly written by a moron with an agenda. OK so it take you time to boot your computer, but no time to start your car and drive to Costco? Oh. You were going there anyway? Might you not also be needing to boot your computer to check email or surf for porn? ( A JOKE)
Did you know you can download more quickly that when this was written and the edit and send images to Costco for printing in case you don't have a good/working printer?
film only costs $1.19, What decade are you living in. It costs about a $1.00 to click an image with todays quality film and labs. Each time and every time you hit the shutter is costs a dollar. Even if the picture sucks or just duplicates the one previous. So after 200 images you can afford a few cards and CD/DVD's A few more days and you can afford a printer and some ink.
Pluleeze! Get real.
I do agree that there are issues with archiving and I agree that film can still make the highest quality image in most cases. The question becomes can you see or perceive that quality or do you need it. Othewise we would all be shooting 4x5 or 8x10 cameras, rather than those Shi**y Hassleblads.
Kind of like my dad buying top of the line stereo equipment( like $12K per piece) and then forgetting to put in his hearing aid.
There are a lot of simple and easy to use quality digital cameras out there fo the casual shooter for a very low price compare to an equivalent film 35 mm camera.
