Merry Christmas!

As per usual, I had no idea what I wanted for Christmas. I've had some ideas floating around my head, primarily for the computer, as I tend to get DVDs/books/CDs/whatever during the year anyway.

So I had a couple of ideas, and I settled on this one...

Dad and I met up at Best Buy this week and we picked it up.
This came in handy, as I discovered that because of my Torrenting a lot of data, I had less than 5GB of space available on the hard drive at home. I pulled most of that data onto the external here, as well as whatever was on the 10GB of USB thumbdrives I was using, and now I have a single repository of data that travels with me.

For my birthday, I'm going to request some cash toward a 500GB internal SATA hard drive.

Ah, we got one of those book things too around our birthday. Both of our computers were getting full. Now we've both got plenty-o-space.

10gig thumb... nice. I've got one of the biggest ones around the office and mines only 2gig.

My largest thumbdrive is 4GB. The other three are 2GB.

They're getting cheap, too.

I'm seeing them for about a hundred bucks from both fry's and tigerdirect, so...
