Don't use white as background, it will drain your battery. Black is soooooo much betterjohnjohnson said:

Since I took a picture anyway (and only recently got it):
No such thing as Elite membership for Europeans, I had the points saved up* to buy it so why not?
*-btw, thats way more than the platinum requirement would be but I didn't see anything I like on EU Club Nintendo for the near future

and have more than a few thousand stars worth unused anyway

RCSS had a sale for these points card, 15 bucks a piece, and pairing it with their no tax event made this deal simply irresistible.

I'll be honest, it sort of weirds me out too, especially the ones that are almost naked. I guess if you like it, why the hell not?

My Xbox is ready
Slowly making my way up to better amps and headsets. Right off the bat, this combo is better in every way than headsets made specifically for consoles (that I've tested anyway) and no annoying hiss!

Professional Model S. It's really wonderful. I have been using a Saitek Eclipse for a while, I dropped $130 on the Black Widow Ultimate two weeks ago but both of the ones I tried had defects so I said das it is which should of been my first choice to begin with. Returning the Black Widow today. I had about two weeks with the Black Widow, the quality and feel is really different, at least I think so. Also the das sounds a bit quieter but, just a bit.
The rest of the stuff I got this month.
You can't blame me if XSEED cancels Trails in the Sky Second Chapter and Final Chapter.
I'd been looking for those movies for a few months and couldn't find them. I didn't know the special edition DVDs were discontinued. I had the movies on VHS back in the 90s, but I've never had the DVDs.
I got those two at a Borders that's closing. I would have waited for the sale to get better, but I was afraid someone else would get them first. When I was at the store last week, they also had the Mega Man Official Complete Works. I wanted to get it when I went back a few days ago, but it was gone. I wish they'd had Udon's Valkyria book.

How much were they at Borders? Are they in the strategy guide section?B.K. said:

No. They were back in the manga section. They were listed at $39.99 each, but manga is 20% off, so they both registered $31.99 each. I REALLY wish they still had the Mega Man book. That thing's out of print and hard to find now. Even on Amazon, it's selling for $90.

All the fans are 140mm plus they are only spinning at either 600rpm or 1000rpm. together that means it whisper quiet. The only thing that makes a noise is the GPUs at full load (which is rare). The water cooling is quiet. i have the 600rpm fans up top and the 1000rpm fans in the front and rear.

I've only sticked to PCs all my life and this my first laptop. Don't really have something to compare it to and I might not have the greatest impressions. All other things I saw or touched was in the store.CoachKevin said:
First of all the keyboard feels great. I'm having a hard time switching back to my PCs keyboard. Typing is a real joy on this thing and the keys are nicely big. A big shift, enter and backspace are a huge plus. The trackpad/touchpad on the other hand is not so good. It just doesn't feel very responsive to me and the buttons that they kinda built in to it feel weird. The buttons will definately need some getting used to I guess. The screen is fine and does its job. 11,6" screen gets a 1366x768 resolution which is neat for watching shows and movies. I'm having no issues watching 720p stuff in fullscreen, no stuttering, even when fast forwarding or jumping to another point. I feel that the sound quality of the speakers is really good, exceeding my expectations atleast. Sure, it's not comparable to a proper speaker set, but for a built in one in a netbook at this pricerange, I'm very satisfied with it.
It's pretty powerful for a netbook, running with a dual core and a HD6310. Also having a 7200rpm HDD inside it. Giving you more ways of entertainment thanks to its specs. It can play some old games and indie games very well. Shatter and Audiosurf had no problems and it was able to run Guild Wars and Team Fortress 2. Battery life is fine I suppose, will try this soon on the go. So far it looks like I got a good 5-6hours with it when doing all kinds of things on it.
Very satisfied with it so far, many of my postive points will surely be featured on the Air aswell. Sadly that one was out of my pricerange, I like what I saw from it. It's probably also even more powerful than mine. Quote below also reminded me that the cover is a finger print magnet which is a shame.
I suppose they can call it that since it's pretty powerful compared to the average netbook. I still like to refer it as a netbook though because of its size and that it includes no optical drive. But it can indeed handle more stuff instead of only using it for the "net". And yes that coverfilipe said:

I also bought a Windows Phone 7 (LG e900 Optimus 7) for a mere 175 branded but unlocked. Replaced my iPhone 3GS with it. I'm not sure yet if it's going to be until the iPhone 5 comes out or if WP7 is going to stay. I really like what Microsoft delivered with the OS and basically every app I need exists on this device. If it wasn't for IE as the only browser, it would be perfect.

surprised you went crossplatform. typically ppl who get apple do tend to stick exclusive. nice to see diversity

It finally came in today!

12 years waiting for this moment. 12 fricking years! This is the best purchase I've ever done.
BEYOND jealous. They completely skipped over Texas in their NA tour last year.
At this rate it would be easier for me to drive down to the Mexico City concert.
