I have been a Nikon fan for over 25 years, but I would love to own a Contax RTS III with some Zeiss glass someday. While I'm at it, I would also like an Olympus OM3 with a few Zuiko primes! I wouldn't even mind owning a Minolta 9 or a Pentax LX for that matter!

You say that as if the LX and 9 are bad cameras! I think that for name brand SLRs, one is just as good as the other, really; Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Konica, Minolta, Leica, Rollei, etc all made good bodies and optics. It's just that we prefer one over the others.

Like me. I'm a Pentax guy, and my favorite has to be my KX... like a Spotmatic, but better! But I'm also partial to Nikon, and I'm sure that there's an F4 in my future, and just as certain that I'll love it!
