Generic Gift-Giving Holiday Lists

[klange]

So what's on your $GENERIC_GIFT_GIVING_HOLIDAY list for this year? $THE_SEASON is only a month away!

My list has only two items:
1. Dell Mini 9, fully loaded, $480 - First machine I'll ever buy with code I wrote already on it. Awesome!
2. G1G1 OLPC, $400 - One for me, one for a kid in a third-world country.
Grand total, sans tax and shipping: $880.

How about you guys, what are you getting?

[Hotrod]

I'm just gonna ask for money, which I'll then stick into my bank account, and leave it there for a nice while until I want to use it.

[flibitijibibo]

1. New PSU (My current PSU is a Dell 400W :gonk:)
2. Desk chair that's actually comfortable

That's about it. If I knew more about it, I'd ask for the XFPS Sniper Plus (http://www.xcm.cc/XFPS__3.0_Sniper_Plus.htm)

[Reaper Man]

I want me some new glass, maybe a Nikon 17-55 f/2.8 DX lens, though I'd prefer the 24-70 f/2.8, it's outta my price range. I'm close to having enough money to get the 17-55 D:.

A new camera body would be nice, though it's not entirely needed, am want a D300, a D700 would be awesome due to the full frame sensor but, once again, way outta my price range.

[Skill]

Escape From New York on DVD.
Gas money.
Money for gas.

That's about it.

[ultama121]

Left 4 Dead.
Crysis Warhead.
CnC3.
CnC3: Kane's Wrath.
RA3.
Maybe FC2 and COD5:WaW (I'll get it because my friends have it :-3)

[Bodzilla]

I'm getting a $4,000 car... for a Christmas, Birthday, Graduation, Easter, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July gift for the next 2 years :)

[paladin]

^^ lololol

I want Wall -E on Blu Ray

[Roostervier]

Apparently my parents have ordered me something for Christmas, but I've got no idea what it is. Other than getting it, I don't want anything else. d:

[Disaster]

1. Wacom Intuos 6x8 Tablet
2. Nvidia 8600 GT
3. RAM upgrade ( to 4 gigs)
4. Crysis Warhead

[leorimolo]

Saving up for a 32 inch tv. I have 500 atm

[legionaire45]

2. Nvidia 8600 GT

You can probably get something more modern (and faster) for around the same price as that card. The 8600's are the ones that had the issue with the GPU unsoldering itself from the PCB.

I'd like an HDTV of some sort. Nothing expensive or anything, it's just that I haven't had a TV since September ;___;.

[JunkfoodMan]

I'm getting another harddrive (Around 300-400GB or so), a DVD-RW drive, and a few other things, like Wall-E, another Shelf unit, etc.

[Syuusuke]

Nikon D40

An electric bass (and maybe an amp even though I already have one).

and $$$

[FRain]

Electric Drum Kit, New Phone, L4D, UT3 and possibly Fallout 3.

Can you link me to a card that would be better in the same price range?

[paladin]

You guys are spoiled. Might as well wrap the thread with [spoiled]

[Hotrod]

Yeah, I'd never get my own HDTV, as well as other things for Christmas...

Oh well, I prefer to learn the value of money now, and buy my own stuff, though it is nice to get some nice gifts once in a while. :)

[StankBacon]

You guys are spoiled.

[Kalub]

.... I usually only get one gift, per yer. And this is number 18. I wish I was spoiled.

This thread is about giving, the title is misleading.

1. Hot Dickings, just handing them out.

And so is the last line of the first post...

Well, so far, I've gotten my brother a 12+1 months Xbox LIVE Gold subcription, and...yeah, still working on the rest.

[klange]

If we're going to talk about giving, I'll be serious and say "a laptop to a kid in a third world country" and "a 48-hour Live card to a friend whose temporary subscription ran out".
