Arg You sound as bad as my girlfriend! You'd think at 28 she'd have grown out of it, but noooo. I foolishly put her presents out last night and she's already been snooping around, sniffing, shaking and prodding them  She's been doing the same thing everytime we go to her parents.I go to all the effort of trying to suprise her and she can't wait for 2 days all she'll end up doing is spoiling the excitement when she actually gets them. However I have no idea what I'm getting for Christmas. All I know is that I almost certainly won't get anything computer/zoid/hobby relataded as no one like to encourage my antics   I always get the things I never knew I wanted and thankully people don't buy me any clothes these days!

The only reason I know is because I had to assist in the purchase of it. My parents have virtually no idea of what to get me this year, so I had to point out a few items I wanted. I had mentioned a new digital camera for a while, and my Mom mentioned it to me the other day about it.Because I work at Target, and I get a 10% discount, and anyone in my family buying anything there saves a little, In the end, that camera only cost $177 (original price $179, add 8.5% sales tax) I may be 20 years old, but I'm still a kid at heart. ------------------

I got a Vanguard Designer 1 Slimcase from my wife...you can see it at the the bottom of my hardware page. It's all brushed-aluminum and only 2.5" thick! 666th poster and 666th thread-creator

I know I got:an iSub
A pack of guitar strings
A Real Book (the original one)
A mousepad for my SparcStation
The Montgomery Brothers' Groove Yard And I've worked out a trade to get a monitor and the SCSI cable for my SparcStation. The AppleDesign Powered Speakers that I never use, plus a StyleWriter 2400 that I never use, plus an extra Solaris 2.4 CD for a 19" Sun Trinitron monitor with a great picture. Sound reasonable?

My wife got it from Staples for $50...the PowerBook fits into it perfectly, however you're only left with enough room for a single jewel-case-style CD, three pens/pencils, 3+ business cards and maybe a Zip disk or a small (6' or so) ethernet or other cable. I have to put my power cord, headphones and everything else in another bag while travelling...however, it still KICKS A$$! 666th poster and 666th thread-creator

i got my 19" display in november that smoked during a power related problem in december. A replacement was shipped a couple of weeks ago and hasn't arrived yet, I'm becoming worried. Besides that, some money from grandparents that went directly towards my credit card bill._______________________
