I need one of those, 2TB tho. Keep putting it on hold.

I got 11 nice ties from Jos.A.Bank for 170. Also picked up the Xbox one S with Battlefield 1 from Bestbuy for 250, didn't really need it but was going to buy a 4k bluray player anyway so i decided better to upgrade from the regular Xbox one.

I bought the sony 55inch for 1199 from bestbuy back in august, now it's 899, i snoozed kinda, but i had no choice cause my old TV broke down in august.

Happy with the Sony? Was thinking about jumping on that one but decided against buying a big ticket item on impulse.

hell i remember when having a 4mb machine meant you had the ram man! breaking the 1mb barrier was something and one of the most useless skills i have today is optimizing the 640-1024 area of the first 1mb. :) in my microsoft training class i won that contest with a frame=e000 reference. :)

I love it. Applause! :)

We are part of the evolution/revolution/2.0, 3.0 .... welcome to the future life and times lol



Not-so-useless skill from the "advent" of the "smart phone"...

So... I held off on getting smart phone. They weren't that great to start and were somewhat gimmicky. I wasn't paying for the smart phone until it was "good"...

I held on to first Motorola Razr. Still love that phone.

I had gotten the Razr in 2005.
In 2007 the first iPhone came out.
I was still using the Razr in 2009.

Friends and clients were bragging about their smart phone and laughing that I had an "old Razr".

So circa 2008-09 they were saying you need a smart phone because you don't get email.
I said I get email on my flip Razr.
They doubted.
I said send me an email and I will get it faster than you will on your smart phone.
At the time it really wasn't force or push email. They had to wait.

So they send me email,
My Razr chimes,
I said there it is.

They say... HOW DO YOU GET EMAIL ON A FRIGGIN RAZR???


LOL

I had forwarded my real email address to my Verizon 2125551212@vztxt.net
So it came in on my text messages.

They sorta felt cheated and angry.

I still get a kick out of that. Heh heh

I got the HTC Vive for my kids for Christmas from Gamestop. It was reduced by $100 so I can still afford to feed the family Ramen noodles instead of sending the kids out to beg for money.
