So did anyone get any cool tech gifts this year?
Wednesday, December 26, 2007 by Stupendous Man | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Standard fair (fare?) at our house this year. My son wanted a Wii, but I [i][b]refused[\b][\i] to pay more than retail for the thing, even though I want it just as much as he does. $600 or more for one?!? Come on!!! 
I'll just wait for my tax refund and get it for him in February or March. So anyway, what about you? Did you get that cool tech item that you wanted? Just wondering. Have a good one!

Eyeclops!!
All my girls (4, 8. 18) are so caught up with this. We've been making lists of things to magnify. Toenails, scabs, adn eyes at 200X are all pretty gross!

lets see...
I got a remote control that connects to my pc via USB, and can control all the CRUD i have connected to the new 37" LCD TV (I got 3 mo ago).
A couple XBox360 games (Orangebox and BioShock, both will take a while to play). And a cool Electric razor that might help me keep my head shinny!
Hope everyone got what they wanted, or at least didnt get any Coal.. I do know where to get a LOT of coal if needed.

Me... got myself a 19" ViewSonic wide-screen LCD monitor with hi.fi stereo sound... not that I need it with my new X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatality Pro (Champions Edition) sound card and 5.1 Logitech speaker system. Cranked it up half-way Xmas morning... now we have a leak where it lifted the roof. 
Next up is air-con....temps around here will be getting into the high 30's to low 40's Celsius in the next few weeks... and I prefer 15 - 20 C.

Most of the stuff in the picture are toys I got this year. There are 4 more speakers at the back (7.1). Those IKEA cabinets will go this Saturday in favor of a large entertainment center.

@BoXXi, that bike is the most important gadget in the picture . My son will be upset someday that it is not fully captured.
@Philly: 60" Pioneer Elite Kuro Plasma.

Actually my home theater system decided go out last saturday. Got myself a Samsung model HT-WX70, 1200watts with wireless rear speakers with a 5 disk DVD player. Has a FM tuner and is XM Satellite radio ready. More controls for adjusting the sound that anyone should have. I like it!
