A college education.

I was thinking...maybe 802.11g wireless then I woke up to reality and ...paint, power tools, 2x4s...ya-de-ya...

I've come to the realization that anything I want to do in my house starts at $500. ;D

[profdlp]

Bookshelves (or materials to build them) once I get moved into my new digs.

No more hunting through fifty boxes to find the book I'm after. :)

You by chance wouldn't be painting your new home over Memorial day weekend would you? Party attendees please take note, you may have to do some painting... ;D

[primesuspect]

[mmonnin]

Well I found the thread for $20 SLK-947s so I will prolly get 2 of those.

Maybe soon I will get one of those new bitchin fast ATI cards based on the R420 core.

I have been temped by several members here this week already.

[primesuspect]

Bitchin' Fast 3D :D

[GnomeWizardd]

[MJO]

Well I am going to buy a 35W AXP-M 2500+ and OC it like mad. :thumbsup:
The XP-M should get me through 2004, I will not make a major upgrade untill 2005.

And probably a new television, my old one kinda burned out.
It sure didn't smell too good in my linvingroom.

And here's primes new GFX.
Dont' mind the outdated chipsets, it still kicks ass. ;D

aaaHAHAHA "while they never moved and attacked each other, we're confident the bitchin' fast would've wooped thier asses." lmao . bungholio marks ... under no circumstances sold to china ... HAHAHAHA LMNOPRAM!!! brilliant lol

[leishi85]

after seeing mmonnin's post, i will i will need to get me a slk947u also, and get me a new fan for the heatsink, since my slk800 is getting dirty and lazy to clean them(too hard to clean, the dusts are like attached to the heatsink with glue or something.)

don't know what else is there to buy. I should buy me new headphones, the sennheiser hd595 looks nice, but i will wait before i take off for college.

[tycho]

two brand new Titleist Vokey design, Black Nickel finish wedges (golf clubs)... i start my summer employment tomorrow... I figure I'll have the money in like 3 weeks, since they both cost about 100 bucks each

[tefleming]

since i just struck a deal for an external enclosure and a better wifi router, the next thing I'll be buying is probably a nice laptop bag :-)

[MrBill]

Probably a ton of new stuff for my new house. Most likely thing will be lots and lots of paint.
That goes for me too! :)


Carpet, paint, vinyl flooring, deck stain, whatever it takes to get the pool going, etc., etc., etc....


As for computers, I should have (2) Xeon 2.66 HT processors arrive tomorrow via UPS. I should soon be getting a Tyan S2668ANR mobo from hotrodsun. Gonna build my first duallie! :thumbsup:

[Armo]

best head set ive ever owned

[RADA]

My college graduation present to me is going to be a new Mustang Cobra. Been saving for almost 3 years. I've got 12 weeks left till graduation, I should be able to plunk down 75-80% of the purchase price in cash!

[entropy]

:wow2: rada - that's awesome!!!

Here is a tip, use a comb. I happened to have a comb where the teeth of the comb are exactly the same width as the fins in the HS. The same comb has worked for a SLk-800, SLK-900, and SLK-947. It works great for getting most of the dust out. The rest can be blown out by mouth.

Without much doubt, some more guitar gear....I commissioned my son to design me a new enclosure for an amp, to make it 2 speakers instead of 1 so we're gonna need the supplies to build that...wood, glue, screws, covering, speaker grillecloth, etc. The house/property tax bill arrived in the mail today, if only that $1800 actually GOT me something :banghead:

[Missileman]

I've come to the realization that anything I want to do in my house starts at $500. ;D

I've come to the conclusion that after entering Lowe's or the Home Depot you must spend a minimum of $100 to leave. I've found that if I stay out of those places I have more upgrade money :)

I just ordered a Koolance Exos-AL with the 300 Watt water block. If it works well then I add the Northbridge and GPU cooler to the 9800Pro.

[profdlp]

Without much doubt, some more guitar gear...
You're doing pretty well with what you already have. :thumbsup:

[madmat]

Well, I bought Citrix's wc gear and I need to get an adaptor for the CPU block, make a reservoir and get a GPU block (i'm thinking Swiftech blah-blah 50 with adaptor) and hopefully by this time next year I'll have a 2.8c and a 6800U bolted in there as well.
I can't see much point in laying out a big bunch of cash for a new system until this one's way behind the curve and the way things are going I've got a while to wait. I'm waiting on dual core CPU's and the GeForce 15 Whizbangy Ultra and Soundblaster Audigy XxX Shizzzbanger Uber DeLuxe 200.3 surround card with body twitch geometry to come out before I spend mega-bucks again...

[MediaMan]

Okay...so I will reno the house


AND RACKMOUNT!

if the wife will let me.


Geez...now you guys have me thinking I should go dual Opterons. I don't need them...I want them.

[gtghm]

I hope to be adding one of these to the fold this summer http://adcache.boattraderonline.com/6/4/4/62836944.htm

[muddocktor]

Our next major purchase (my wife and I) will most likely be a Nissan Titan crew cab for my wife. As far as computer stuff goes, who knows? :D

it happened to mine too. i let it sit in water for the better part of a day, and it all came out.if there are smokers in your household, i may need to use grease remover.

my next thing is 2 15" subs for my car a (1990 lesabre lol). then comes a 12 piece tama star classic. :Rocker:

[TheSmJ]

Another 512MB stick of 3500 HyperX RAM, and a new video card (chipset TBA).

In that order.

Oh, and a new light for my fishtank (to make the plants grow much better).

[McBain]

System for my car, hi capacity mp3 player, new hdd's, and 19" low responce lcd badass!

Watch out with that light.
I had an ordinary light in my fishtank earlier and my plants were dying.
Now I have a GroLux light, and the plants are almost growing out of the tank.
You'll have to do some serious weeding with such a light, everything goes bananas including algae.

I was thinking about a Gamecube. I don't really need one but the new E3 Zelda video has me drooling like a dog. Zelda: Ocarina of Time is what caused me to buy a Nintendo 64. I ph34r that they might have me roped into getting a cube now. Curse you Nintendo! Curse you!
