I've had two Samsungs and have had great luck. Since I use one on the job, it's not unusual to take over 100 photos a day.
One thing to remember, gear your mega-pixels to what you intend to do with the pics, especially if you're going to attach a lot on a computer. The higher number of pixels, the finer the resolution, but the longer they take to download.
The camera I'm using on the job now has up to 5.1 pixels, but I have to let the resolution set on the minimum, 480x640 because that's all our company software will accept.
I tried a Kodak once, but took it back. For one thing, operation was too complicated for my purposes. Since I'm usually carrying a clipboard and camera at the same time, I need to be able to control the zoom functions and review function all with one hand. Also our company extracts the time and date the camera embeds in the photos and the Kodak would embed the date but not the time. It would show the time on the display when it was turned on, but would not embed the time on the photo.
The date (and time) are always embedded in the photo whether the imprint is turned on or off, and our company doesn't want the imprint on the photos that are sent to clients, but they do want the time and date recorded on our reports.
Like everything else, though, go with what works for your purposes.

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
