How did everybody here do for Christmas? Beteween Christmas and my brithday (three days apart), I made out like an effing bandit. Check out my home setup.

Got my 15" pb, 10gig iPod, Airport, Wireless mouse, Shuttle Xpress and a Timbuktu bag all within one glorious week. Of course I had to pay for some of it... and the keyboard and second monitor were salvaged from my old Compaq.

I am just going to gets some DVDs, GC games and a Sony DV camera. I doubt many people will be able to beat what you got. My brother got a drum kit, portable mindisk recorder and mobile phone, and his Birthday is near Christmas like yours.

My Mom got my Dad a new computer but my Dad is barely ever home (much less on the computer), so she basically got me a new computer. And it is a nice one on top of that:
1GHz 17" iMac
768MB RAM
SuperDrive
Apple Pro Speakers
120GB HD

But my parents decided not to get gifts for everyone this year other than the computer. The whole family is getting cell phones, and my Dad is getting the computer, and that's it.

But I can't be mad about the iMac ;).

Merry Christmas,

Well I can only speak for myself but I searched hi and low and the only place here in Hawaii that had any left was my local Circuit City.

lol sorry to hear it. Was it even wrapped or did they merely point to it sitting on a desk?

it wasn't wrapped...

if they were smart, they would have given me my dad's old beige G3... that thing isn't used anyway and would make a nice linux box...

what a sad day...

BUT at least my grandma was happy to see me the next day (that fine lady is 87) :):):):):)
