I find this Sony-bashing rather inconclusive because most of the
happy Sony-owners don't speek up. To change this a little:

I got my D-5 right when it came out (waiting list and $300...). It never
failed, despite heavy abuse and being droped from a desk at least twice
(the plasitic parts of the lid were broken on the first occation so there
is a hole were the window used to be - covered with masking tape to keep the
dust out: no problem). I also poked at the intestines to get the digital
signal out without any ill effect.
