The only computer things I really want are:

The $150 gig of Powerbook RAM on Fry's
MacMice The Mouse BT (white)
Logitech Z-2200 speakers (which my sister already got me so that doesnt really count)
 
I wish there would be a a little program that will make me run PC game and software as if on a PC and as fast as on a PC and not the slooooooooooooooooooooow VPC
 
What do I want for Christmas? 12" PB loaded + 2.5 G5 loaded 🙄

But I'll probably just be getting $200-300. No one knows what to get me for Christmas, so they just give me money. I'll probably use that money to build another PC as a music server, or FTP/SSH/HTTP/etc. server.
 
(1) Money for building a computer, for CS: Source.
(2) PStwo (the smaller PS2), with a game or two
(3) Halo 2
(4) Call of duty: finest hour
 
for xmas i want: (realistic list)
snow! i missed the last snow by 5 years by being born in '90 and it wasnt even on xmas or
any mac that runs any version of osx without xpostfacto or
a trip to france/spain over spring break (with my school, it costs 2k dollars, may or may not get to go) or
a blackberry phone or
AN APPLE STORE IN SAN ANTONIO!
(fantasy list):
1 (one) genie who will grant me 3 (three) wishes. you know the rest.
edit: tonight i had the opportunity to play on my friend's selmer series II bari sax! that thing's amazing; i use my school's ybs52 and thought it was fine and now it's not gonna feel right going back! now i want one! 6k bucks (for silver-plated or matte lacquer) though and for that price i could get a 2.5g5 plus a 30"acd...
 
only one thing

There is only one thing my friends and I have been waiting for for over a year now..........Halo 2!!!

And the best part is that one of my friends works at BlockBuster and they get the games a week before the are out, so he can get it the Thursday before 11/9. Granted it's only about 4 or 5 days before everyone else, but it will be worth it.
 
i really wish apple would update the iBooks so i can get one of them. i know that just about every other computer they sell needs it first, but i just can't buy a computer that was updated in janurary (i think).
all they need is price drops, Mhz boosts an VRAM boosts

same thing here man!!

but thats like a whole month before christmas.... ill need to formulate a new plan by then..... 🙄




ohh and a dual 2.5 ghz with 2+ gigs of ram and dual 30" and and and and... well you get the idea 😉
 
let's see, I have:

- tiBook 1Ghz, 512MB, 60GB, Superdrive
- 3rd gen. iPod 20GB
- Airport Extreme Base
- Airport Express
- M-Audio Firewire Audiophile
- Gemini UMX-9 Mixer

I don't plan any major purchases in addition to my current setup, but I'd like to update my tiBook to 1Gig Ram and an Hitachi 7200RPM HD

I'd also like to have a Canon ZR DVcamcorder, but I'm not sure how often I would actually use it, so I will probably go for the ram and the HD plus professional installation (I'm too lazy to do it myself...)

Not too much, just an iCurve, Apple BT keyboard, USB Hub and a Powermate.
Ooops, that already makes 200€... oh well.
 
For Christmas I want at least one of these things (not all of them):
A new iBook
A new eMac
A new iMac
An Apple Store in Orem
A used, but good PMG3 or PMG4
Halo 2
A Gamecube w/Final fantasy Crystal Chronicles w/GBA w/link cables

I'll add later.
 
for xmas i want a dual anything G5 powermac and a 23" (or 20") apple display. i would also like a TV viewing device for it 🙂

unless santa wins the lottery (or finds some other means of purchasing power) ill probably want (er get) 512MB of ram for my PB and a nice set of computer speakers.
 
For dell to stop running their commercials that always end with:
"hurry cause this offer ends on ............"
but then the same commercial is recycled with that end date changed to a date that reflects when they are recycling the commercial.
 
20" iMac G5
Nintendo DS+2 Games (doesnt come out in Australia till about Feb next year 🙁, I can still import though)
Halo 2
Xbox Live
Metroid Prime 2
Pikmin 2
Paper Mario 2

That's what I really want, but what I am getting will not be all that at all, prolly one or two games, and I'll buy my iMac on my own, and get my DS when it comes out here.
 
Doraemon:

Music... damn, I saw Death Cab for Cutie last night (great show!) but I have all their cds, I can't think of many other cds I long for.

If you haven't picked up The Postal Service album you should ask santa for it. It is extremely good and they are awsome live (I saw them at the Gorge in WA State). The lead singer (Ben I think?) from Death Cab For Cutie is a member.
 
All i want for christmas is for apple to announce the dual core g4 powerbooks, so i could buy myself one with my own hard earned moeny working as chef d'équipe at mcdonalds, to replace my lemon (rev, a 1.25ghz 15 inch powerbook)

as for from my parents, well not really anything, i work so i pretty much buy myself whatever i want when i want it, which pisses them off, because they never know what to get me. and when they do think of something they find out that i already bought myself that item like two weeks before

EDIT: well now that i think of it, i could use stargate sg-1 dvd set of seasons 4-8 (is 8 on dvd yet) to add to my collection of season 1,2,3
EDIT2: oh right obviously season 8 is not on dvd yet, that season has just begun like two months ago
