4 film cameras. 2 digitals. 5 computers. 3 laptops. 3 basses. An acoustic
guitar. 4 stereos. A stereo MP3 player in every car, and 3 more CD players
hanging around. Oh, and 6 cars, 4 running and two 'in-progress'...  ;)

No he's not. The only reason I got a digital camera was for snapshots.
When it comes to *real* photography, I still use a film camera.

Less expensive digital cameras don't have the flexibility of different
lenses, filters or accessories you have with film cameras in the same
price range.

I'm neutral on the subject, overall, But I did the change to digital for
convenience. My photo skills left a lot to be desired. Seeing it instantly
is a great advantage, but I would be a idiot to tell others that there view
of how something looks is wrong. Many people bought up the last packages of
Polaroid film because they prefer the way it looks. that is there opinion. I
think Digital is equal to Film in most regards; but you can do IR pictures
with film, and there are processes of using different ASA film speeds to do
x-pictures to give you y-results that cannot be duplicated with digital.
Have you ever taken black and white pictures? adding color filters to accent
a gray in a picture to get a result.
Using cameras is like painting- some use colored pencils, come water colors,
some oil paint. its a  art for, and its up to the user, not you.
