I'd answer you seriously, #3, if you weren't who you are.

Why buy a DSLR when you can get a smaller point & shoot for less

Like #1, I want a D90.
Why don't I want:
- D80? - Matrix exposure is still overexposed, color rendition for vivid is more red and yellow
- D60? - I owned a D40 and this will be a step backwards. No autofocus with AF lenses just like D40, color rendition is similar to D80
- Point and shoot? - Because I want to tweak some settings when I want to take picture.
Why do I want D90?
I don't really want it, but that is the cheapest 2nd gen Nikon DSLR. Better color rendition, autofocus with AF lenses (cheaper), and allowance for easy tweaking if needed.
Why do I want those?
Well, so I can take picture without being frustrated at things that come out not to my heart's content.
There goes.
Now, back to #1, where are the D90 deals....????

Oh, when I meant that D90 has better color rendition, I mean it really brings out the blue in things. The saturation setting allows for more red+blue rather than red+yellow. That's according to my eyes anyway.

#3 - I would say this:
Canon - better in sharpness, cheaper gear, uncomfortable and a bit clunky in handling
Nikon - less sharp, but good nonetheless; gear is more expensive but there are older lenses (AF) which are cheaper than the new ones (AF-S), not affecting picture quality, just focus speed; more comfy to grip; and intuitive controls
The last two in Nikon saved my life coz I missed 2-3 potentially good shots back in the film days when I used Canon. Therefore, I switched to Nikon.
