Ei and I almost bought one similar to that, but we opted for some other things...

I just ordered a Wii; a Balance Board; and 3 games...Wii Fit Plus; Big Beach Sports; and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Maybe.  I haven't decided yet.  It was recommended for someone in the house by their doctor, so that's why we got it.  I may stick to bowling.  :P

Just upgraded to this laptop

Been wanting to upgrade to a laptop I can do a little gaming on (mainly Final Fantasy XI) as this one has crap for a graphics card. Went to Best Buy and had that one recommended to me. Was actually one of the ones I was looking at on their website so I went with it. Never heard of Asus before but was told they make some pretty solid gaming machines and the specs on that look pretty good

STRYPER!  Love that album too, good one.  Well, our tax returns have come (and gone), and it is very necessary for me to upgrade this machine asap, so I bought this:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5574380&Sku=N500-3000

and this to go with it:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4242601&Sku=G180-2202

which as of this posting was "few left, will sell out!".  I'm glad we jumped on those, that was a KILLER price for a well rated monitor.  GOD I can't wait for it to get here!

I've got that one, and In God We Trust as well.  I think To Hell with The Devil is their best, though.

Congrats on the new PCs, guys.  They look pretty sweet.

Yeah, it should be sweet.  A guy at work has one, and I really like it.  Can't wait 'til we get 'em.

I also got the rest of duty gear today, including a canister of pepper foam.  NOW I feel like a Security Guard.  :))

Just bought a new flashlight for work.  To give ya an idea of how powerful it is, we have a 2D Cell model and a 3D Cell model of this at home:



They're sturdy, and extremely reliable.  However, their output is only 36.5 and 76.8 lumens, respectively.  This is the one I'm getting:



It's the Aurora SH-42 HA-III Cree SST-50 5-Mode 1000-Lumen Memory LED Flashlight.  Yep, you read that right: 1000 lumens!  And it's SMALLER than the 2D Maglite...5.71" as compared to 10"!  It also has rechargeable batteries, so I should be good for awhile.

Can't wait to see just how much brighter it is compared to these others.  Even if the actual brightness is lower than the ideal specs, it's still gonna be one helluva bright light!  ;D

Are you going to RAID the drives?  If so, hardware or software RAID?

Also, why'd you settle on 5.4K rpms?  Since you're dealing with media, and investing all this cash, I'm surprised you didn't go with at least 7.2K, if not 10K rpm drives.  They're a helluva lot faster that standard drives.

i went with those drives because i couldnt find 7200 2 terrabyte drives on sale in the uk. and no, i'm not raiding them; there just wont be room. the box only takes 4 drives and i'll need all of 'em just to store my films.

i've spent the past 2 days ripping and now have 88 films, 10gb of cds, 77 music vids and 3 complete tv shows ripped.
