As for me..........I'll settle for a sexy Asian woman.

Uh... OK...? The kind that takes batteries, or the kind that don't?

This Christmas is gonna be pretty sparse. Mainly little stuff for everybody. I'll get my wife's after the holidays when we have some money to actually spend (hospital stay sorta screwed up the cash flow). She's already got me something... I know what it cost, but not what it is or where it was bought from.

Got what I wanted. 7800GS video card.

Bought my wife a Compaq SR2010NX and a PNY 7300GT. The next purchase for her is a gig of RAM.

I'm giving my father in law a copy of Counter Strike Source, my mom a copy of Gray's Anatomy (the book, not the show), my little brother in law a copy of Splinter Cell Double Agent, and my sister in law a (gag!) Him CD.
