    Dear Santa,

    Just send cash, I'm saving for a nVidia GeForce 7900. $199.99 USD at Best Buy. (I've got $10, only 189.99 to go!)

      Street1 - lol.
      I think he may want to ask Santa for a new keyboard, I think the shift key is failing ::)
      Dilbert - nice graphics card you're going to get there.  Wish I had one.  Actually, wish I had a machine to put it in . . .

        You know what I hate? The graphics card I have now was $170 when I got it. It's a GeForce 6600. Now, a 7200 is only $130. :-/

        Lol. It is annoying the way tech prices change so rapidly.
        For example, a laptop with the same level of hardware as mine would only cost about £600-£800 now, but it cost me £1350.
        My friend bought a laptop for £800, the same level of hardware can now be bought for under £400.
        I bought mine in May, he bought his in August - that's how rapidly the prices have changed.
        It's not always bad though, as things become more affordable as time goes on.
        It's just annoying when something blindsides you and you get left behind, like me and my friend :-/

          There is nothing more annoying to me than finding after a long type that my caps lock key was stuck! I have to go back and change it all.  >:(

          I invested $15 in a simple program called sMARTcAPS which lets me disable my caps lock once and for all, every time I boot the Windows machine at home or at work. The second best money I ever spent on software, right after True Image.  ;D

              You sure your keyboard isn't having problems? My Caps Lock key is off by default...

                  No, when I am typing away I frequently and inadvertently hit the Caps Lock when I am trying to get the tab or especially the shift key.

                    Ah, OK. :)

                    Actually, other than the vid card I'm pretty content. I feel secure knowing that "geek" used to be a 4-letter word. Now... now it's a 6-figure word. ;D
