I hope it will be good. They say it will be more fun to play than Forza 4 because it is easier.

New monitor
I bought the new AOC 27" IPS display. Beautiful piece of kit. Tested it with my xbox 360 and Macbook Air before putting it back in the box - won't have room for it til i sell my 24" ACD. Can't decide if I'll mount it to the base or use the back stand to prop it up picture frame-style. I'll figure it out when I get the ACD out and post pics in the setup thread.
Not my pics obviously

I've been thinking of getting one. My Kindle 2 is pretty messed up, not to mention its a US model and I live in Europe... I'm kinda undecided whether to buy the normal kindle or the paperwhite.
Yeah, unfortunately it's getting near that time of year again.... but at least we can have awesome Lego advent calendars

And the first part of the shopping

For myself I've purchased a ceiling mount for the projector when it arrives, and some really good quality HDMI 1.4a leads in lengths of 15 meters to go to the projector, 7.5m for the Framemeister/NeoGeo and three 75cm ones to go between the Amp, the TV, the Blu-ray player and the WiiU.
I also got a new Logitech Harmony 1100 to control everything with, which I'm hoping will simplify everything.

office supply, yeah!
HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus
but before you frown, get this
among others
air print
eprint (send an email and it prints it)
glorious non-retina touch display (drag, tap, app and all)
auto 2 side printing & scanning
1 USB 2.0; 1 Host USB; 1 Ethernet; 2 RJ-11 modem ports; memory card slots
eco stars and all
lots of copies per milisecond & cheaper than laser printing (not so eco)
and after all of HPs shortcomings, I still go for their machines...some people

Heater for the pond, we'll see, I'm still not sold on the whole idea of heating a pond in a Minnesota winter.

Lots of purchases:
- Shimano SPD-SL cleats x2 (yellow ones)
- GU Mint-chocolate gel
- Capo Modena gloves
- Castelli Garmin 2012 Bodypaint bib short
- Castelli 2012 team jersey
- Castelli Garmin 2012 windstopper jacket
- 2x tall-cuff Castelli Garmin socks
- Castelli Cycling cap
You can guess from that my favourite cycling team. It was a documentary about them (back when they were called Slipstream) that got me interesting in cycling. This was the plucky "david" of the cycling teams up against the goliaths.
