Just curious as to what everyone wants for Christmas!

Make a list and check it twice, and post it!

Skipping the "wishing everyone health, happiness and prosperity" and going for the selfish. I would like a nice laptop or a 6-9 megapixel camera or both. At my age, Santa only visits those who are self indulgent and I have read his list and I've been a very bad boy.

More time with my girlfriend. Well lots of things have to change for that to happen and so instead of listing all those things I am listing the outcome instead.

All my family together.

This maybe over rated but an xbox 360 lol. Not as a gaming station but as a pc to hook up to my tv and do all sorts of things. I look at it as a cheaper pc

To see my mother.
I'm already getting an extremely powerful PC that will rape FEAR...
My gf spent $500+ on me for XMas and I have NO IDEA what she got me, so I'm in for a huge surprise.
Other than that, I wish for a few good movies, old ones, but nonetheless very good. That's all.

my birthday present is also my xmas present
but i dont care

mine too (birthday is end of jan)

getting this

to fully appreciate my Logitech Z5500's

One thing I want is snow. Since moving to the south, I miss it dearly.

The only other thing I want....I'll never get.

@Bledd - NICE!



I want the £6000 Alienware Machine I priced up yesterday......nto gonna happen, LOL!



What do I want? All the Due South TV series DVD collection...sad hehe

The digital Scalextrix set with cordless controllers... For my 4 year old son of course!

I want my family, my friends and myself to be happy this Christmas. I also want world peace.

A PS3 !!!!111oneone

lmao.....

--------------------------------------------------

But seriously, The only thing that I ever want this christmas, is my beautiful g/f by my side, cuddling and kis.... you get the picture

*skipping the 'Peace on earth' bullcrapp (because we wont get that anyway)

And since im not into politics:
> Angela merkel, (pri minister of Germany)
> George W Bush (pres of the US)
> Jan Peter Balkenende (pri minister of the Netherlands)
to all get brains (at last), is also not realy an option,

So i guess im in for the 'white xmass' thingy, and the saving of a few square miles of rainforrest.

*sighs*

Just to spend time with my girlfriend and family.


A 60GB black 5G iPod would be nice as well...

Any old crap would do me

Not really into Christmas as much as when I was younger...still, mostly tends to be a happy time.

To have a spyware/malware/spam free internet. Also to get my computer business up and booming once again.

hmmz, - forget what i said earlier, -

I For buisnesses like Eolas - not to exist.

Sorry....See below....

Oooh... Ahhh... *breaths heavily on it*

lmao

Well.....I went and changed my mind.... LOL...

Thanks undeadsoldier.....

As soon as I get it all figured out.... LOL!!

Especially the remote control functions.... I'll give a review on it....Unfrigginbelievable machine and the 21" widescreen... I'm in PC heaven..

Santa no longer keeps the list. He was intercepted (presumably by CIA), and renditioned to an undisclosed location in Uzbekistan. He'll remain there indefinitely--North Pole has no diplomatic relations with Washington, and Global Warming will take care of them before the ink can dry on an extradition agreement--until he can prove his identity and get a friendly nation to accept him (Good luck distinguishing him from all the other department store imposters!). Not to worry, though. Patriotic supporters of the War on Terror can expect a little extra something in their stocking this year. Those on the 'naughty' list will get a surprise, as well.

Makes a great story, eh? I'll forego the toys this year, just to see the look on the kids' faces...

Well I got a new laptop form dell as an early x-mas present and other than the popular xbox360 I only wish for my kids to be happy with what ever the little s***s get and not to whine and drive me and their mother crazy all day long as they sit bored for the remain of the day after they rip the s*** out of their present to enjoy only a few seconds of thrills.


That's all I want!

My Crishtmas gifts were given a little bit earlier ...

Xbox 360 + Call of Duty 2 - Mom and Dad

Motorola V3 Razr Black - Girlfriend

So, the big gifts are done. Ill just have to wait to open up the socks and t-shirts on the crishtmas night.

As an early Christmas present, I got the results back from a blood test I took last week.

I'm allergic to everything.

*Starts building bubble to live in*

WELL...The rest of the story....Grabbed another Gig of DDR2 4300...Installed an Nvidia 256 Meg..Vid Chip
And now... My two favorite widescreens are once again in viewing distance of each other with great ease..

Larger Shot... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v24/Stet.../Picture005.jpg

Nice! Very nice!!

All you need now is a X360 sitting next to that big screen TV! (Since your at it, buy the watercooling kit!)

I was wishing for that wonderful woman that I've been looking for now the last 25 years to materialize, but that didn't happen'...as usual.

..if I can't have that, well...then I don't want anything really.



I wish you all a prosperous 2007...(ain't that looking much better than 2006?)

@dagonet' What undead said for sure. Sweet.

DL

Wellllllllllllll............. LOL!!



I returned the new PC i bought before Christmas...The Gateway.. I decided to go with a new HP..64 Bit Intel Pentium..XP Media Centre Professional Edition....Also with the 21" HDTV Widescreen monitor...

I tell ya.. Desktops just look different...Now!! LOL!!





MODS.. IF THE SHOTS ARE TOO BUG I'LL RESIZE THEM.. JUST WANTED TO SHOW THE MACHINE IN ALL IT's GLORY.. LOL!!

@Dagonet' I only see one problem, if you want to look at the your whole screen, you are going to have to swivle your head. Nice, very nice.
