Since moving to Houston, I am within 20 minutes of a Fry's and Microcenter. My geeky needs are met by those methods now.

But thank you for the heads up :heart:

Yesterday at work, Lilly grabbed an old CD out of one of my drawers, walked over to my brother's computer, pushed the CD drive button, opened the drawer, put the CD in the drawer and pushed it closed, then she pushed the button again which opened the drawer and she took the CD back out, and pushed the drawer closed again... then she looked up at me and clapped. She did this over and over and over and i was kind of stunned.

Her birthday is in 2 weeks, we're building her a dummy computer with a bunch of CD drives that she can open and close :lol:

Did you see those Polk Audio towers they had on sale?

I priced, just using the labor day specials, a new HTPC. $600 from scratch for a Quad core w/ a good video card.

Yes, but the sales at Fry's are even less. I picked up a very good new mobo and CPU for $21 AR after taxes. Newegg doesn't have that.

Yeah. I want those speakers, but the girl is playing Mz Motivator and finally make me paint.

I want to build a new HTPC too, but that involves then buying not just the htpc, but a new TV and reciever

I want to be irresponsible

I have a set I need to put up on craigslist, they are an older model but work perfectly. The just sit in my family room next to the tv stand gathering dust, they aren't hooked up to anything.

price is good. I paid $119 a piece for mine 20 months ago. the ones I got have real wood veneer though, not a big wood-like sticker. they're a euro model called the t90e
