$130
Airsoft Gun (Desert Eagle by Softair USA)
128mb USB Memory Key (already have a 256mb, I will take the smaller one to school)
PC Repair Kit (no more insisting that that screwdriver MUST be non-magnetic :P )
Various little things


That's what I've gotten from my parents and my dad's side (note that there are a LOT of various little things, too many to name). We open presents with my mom's side tonight, I'll post in this thread again after :)

Oh and Racer, this will be the final specs of my system once I finally fork over for the parts I need yet:
  • Athlon 64 3500+
  • a bit AX8 (doesn't come out for 3 days yet Hey, that's funny.)
  • 1 stick of 512mb Kingston RAM (will upgrade to a gig soon after, thus going into dual channel mode)
  • Antec Super LanBoy (awesome case)
  • Antec SL450 450w PSU
  • GeForce 6600 256mb (NOT the GT, which only comes in the 128mb variety)
  • Western Digital WD1200JB Hard Drive (120gb, but PATA :( )
  • Quantum Fireball 20gb HD (don't know the model #)
  • Lite-On 166s DVD-ROM
  • Plextor Premium 52/32/52 CD-RW
  • (note that both optical drives are the best in their class for certain activities involving games and copy protection which I will not talk about here)
  • Whatever Floppy Drive I can come up with for this thing

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

I've received a total of over $1,000 in cash in the past 2 days. $700 of it is going to the college funds, but I still have plenty to buy my computer parts - yayz0rz! Neo doesn't have to work on SSC (and some other things) off his puny P3 866MHz anymore. Speaking of SSC, I oughtz to get those reviews from Budgie up as a Christmas gift to you all!
