So, out of the shiz you have, including computers, audio players, consoles etc.
What's you're favorite?

Also, what would you want, if you suddenly got the cash to?

My favorite is my PS3, just cuz my computer is an ancient iMac G3.
I have an iPod, but a friend has it >.<

My favourite for general usefulness has to be my desktop (custom build, naturally), but I'm a great fan of my Eee in terms of innovation and engineering.

Acquisitions I'd like to make include the forthcoming Samsung Q2 mp3 player (plays all sorts of audio files, including oggs, so I can finally kick wmas, plus it has a 60 hour (you read that right) battery life) - I may actually be getting this one - and a shiny new smartphone of some description (I don't know what I'd actually get; probably something HTC, though maybe Samsung, and probably Android) to replace my crap phone and ancient PDA (I'm talking 2002 vintage, here. Works fine, I just want more power and flexibility).

*points up* You knew that would happen. :P

My computer, I guess. I'd like to someday get an mp3 player that has a battery that can last more than three hours, and a digital camera that wasn't made in 1996.

*has an amazing lack of money*

Probably my 360. My PC is a piece of crap. I'm paying my computer-savvy friend to custom-build me a new one. That should be done around... January 2010.

I have lots of crap. Xbox (not a 360 even), refurbished HP computer are just a few. Probably my Zen is my most valued device. Only 4 GB. =( I wanna get an 8 or 16 GB.

The Zen has an SD card slot you could use, you know.. 8GB SD cards are sorta $10 tops.

If I were on an all-expense-paid shopping trip, I'd get so much cabbage.
Most of it for other people, actually.
Ah well, soon enough, soon enough.

Yes, that's one more reason iPods are overrated, but I haven't found the time to buy a card that size.

My Chocolate. I've dropped at least once a week since I got it and aside from a few scratches, it still looks brand new

Nah, long batteries are never a problem, just plug it in when you can, usually you're good right there.

My internet tablet. Kinda like the i-touch but has more features and not as limiting. Not as shiny and flat tho, but at least it has a real keyboard. (And being all anti-cool and nonconformist with my friends. :leader: )

Sorry, don't have anything to say. I'm a tyro when it comes to computers. My friends enjoy tormenting me over this fact-so you'll please don't add to it.

It's a motherf*cking iPod Touch.
There's no such thing as an 'iTouch.'

After about five minutes, I'm typing really well on a touch qwerty. I've had a few quicky posts here on a friend iPod Touch, Wi-Fi's a wonderful thing.
Neighbor-Fi's even better.

Why would I bother with computing manually when I can employ a device to do it for me? =D
