pfff... we have tivo.. and DDR.

DDR has 2 tuners, so you can record something on one channel, and watch an other channel at the same time.

Seems normal.. when I was a kid I could get anything I want, it's different once you mature up and leave the pimple stage in the past..:rolleyes:

I can see the future! Egg nog... dancing... you falling through a glass desk and bleeding horribly. Take it back!

Damn cr3am.. a tivo. Those are.. are.. $$$

So far I think cr3am is in the lead with the coolest gift. A fucking tivo. I think after that'd I'd be digging a 9600Pro for my third LAN computer too though. Brand new girlfriend's jumping out of carefully wrapped packages are nice too.

DVDs range from 9.99 to 199.99 . That's for legit copiues you buy in the stores. They've put out American TV shows on DVD sets which go for around 39.99-49.99. The sales and syndication of the Family Guy series has caused Fox (a US tv network, not sure if you get it where you live Xeno) to put the show back into production again for a January 2005 premiere. 199.99 for box set DVDs but these are usually huge movie collections, like James Bond 007. Or entire Anime series, like Trigun or Cowboy Bebop.

126mb, no wonder it was 125 USD, I think you need to either edit that post, or get a refund.

I got like $250, was thinking about maybe getting one of those Sirus or XM Satellite radio things, does anyone recommend those? Or should i just bear with the regular radio if i can deal with all the commercials?

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IPG!!!!:eek: :eek: That's one hella sweet car. Better than any of that Japanese crap out today, except the Skyline which I make an exception for. Old American muscle cars are amazing. I'm hoping one day to get an old 60s Mustang, maybe a Shelby GT500 if all the planets are aligned, pigs are flying, and hell is freezing over.
