Christmas 2000: What's on your list?

**mjames** · Nov 4, 2000, 09:29

Alright, I couldn't resist any longer.

The holiday season is rapidly approaching and I'm excited.

What's on your Christmas list? (Note: Appologies to those who don't celebrate Christmas).

For me, I am mostly asking for some new clothes, RAM upgrade (64MB to 128MB likely), some software (Outlook 2001, Norton System Utilities 2001, etc.), plus some demo softwares I need to finally purchase after they've expired.

This should get interesting.

I'm thinking about another copy of vBulletin. I'm considering a second forum, but I don't know if I want to devote the time to it.

I might go for a copy of Dreamweaver or GoLive. I'm not sure which is better.

A new computer

**mjames** · Nov 4, 2000, 11:41

**Aidan Bahta** · Nov 4, 2000, 11:49

Things I'd want in order of importance:

- Cable Internet
- Windows 2000
-SuSe Linux
- PS2
- Diamond Rio

**Justin S** · Nov 4, 2000, 13:12

1) PSX2

2) Some computer books

3) CDs

Not much. I'm getting myself a new computer in November so that was scratched off my list...

**mkaufman** · Nov 4, 2000, 13:32

Well, maybe a 17 inch flat screen monitor, but probably not..

I just got a lawyer and need some money for that

1. Creative Nomad Jukebox.

**Fluffykins** · Nov 4, 2000, 20:08

1. A 6GB MP3 player - the Creative Labs one.
2. A Nokia 9110i
3. More RAM for my pooter (128MB) so I can run Icewind Dale at a decent speed
4. Baldur's Gate II & Red Alert II
5. A pile of DVDs inc. Alien Boxed set and Chicken Run
6. The new Steps concert video
7. The AD&D 3rd Ed. core rule books.

That's what i'd like, whether I get them or not is another matter.

If anyone would like to send me any of the above, i'll of course accept!

I want a digital camera, which I KNOW I am getting. A backpack for my new lovely laptop and lots of surprises, including the new U2 album.

**hmahonen** · Nov 6, 2000, 07:32

There are several things I would like to get, but most certainly I don't get anything - unless if I buy them myself.

Somebody want to donate me an old A1200?

Thankyou Santa,

Flat screen or flat panel?

Flat screen just means you get more viewing area but it still takes up a ton of room. Flat panel is LCD.

I got a 15 inch LCD monitor. I love it, saves so much room on my desk.

Probaly.

**KeithMcL** · Nov 7, 2000, 06:26

Well I know one thing that i'll get even though I never ask for them.

Yes.....of course it's socks and underwear. Why do mothers always buy them??????

**KeithMcL** · Nov 7, 2000, 06:29

On a serious note though i'd like:

1. Some more programming books
2. CDs (David Gray, Ocean Colour Scene, Radiohead, etc)
3. More shirts
4. New mobile (is the Panasonic GD93 available in the states yet?)

That's all I can think of at the mo

Personally, I'd rather have a bigger sized screen monitor, than a smaller one, just cause its LCD.

**Aidan Bahta** · Nov 9, 2000, 19:30

I totally agree with you jumpthru. I'd rather have a 24" Sony Trinitron for the price of a 17" flat panel

I always ask for money. That works the best for me because i can either save it or buy what i want. I usually save it though. I rely on the holidays to boost my economic situation each year.
