last night i bought an HP netbook (10.1" screen, 16gb SSD drive)

right now im jacking 3G internubz from my phone to netbook through USB. it's a lot quicker than i thought!! youtube plays flawlessly, and speakeasy bandwidth test showed 852 kbps down / 150 kbps up.

this is going to be nice to have on the 8 hour train ride tomorrow night (FL -> NC)

Asus HD 4550 to replace my stock 8500GT in my HP Slimline (HTPC), which (as previously posted about) has a crappy 160W PSU. Why the crappy budget card to replace another crappy budget card? Well, the 4550 is the only card that actually provides an improvement in both H.264/VC1 decoding AND 3D performance over the 8500GT and yet draws less power than the 8500GT. Yay!

I use 1200x800

I remember when I used to think my 800x600 was cooler. I looked down on those 640xwhatever people in disgust.

When I went up from 4 to 16 megs of Vram in 2005 (I even posted a thread) I was shocked at the level of detail in 1280x1024 (Or whatever it was.)

bought some baggy biking shorts
inside is nice and tight and holds up my crotch pretty snuggly/tight/comfortably and the outside is baggy and looks normal on the outside \
cost about 50 dollars plus tax
would have bought something more expensive, but other biking shorts were too big/too small/not enough padding/too much padding

im happy with these anyways
no more saddle sores (hopefully)

I've already beat Force Unleashed twice on Sith Lord. About to tackle Sith Master. This game appeals to me greatly. And I really enjoyed the story.

I don't really like the story (better than the post-RotJ stuff, though) but the gameplay is just awesome.

more like it's the fact that i'm often the only one posting anything... about half of the stuff i've posted this month was bought cheap at rummage sales

and the earlier post yesterday (the one with TFU, gizmo, and revenant) was the stuff i bought over the weekend but didn't get around to posting

viking was also purchased about a week ago and only just arrived today

You buy about five times as much as what I download and buy combined.

Normally I'll go months without buying anything, occasionally I'll buy a couple of games at a time, but I consider those my big spending months.
