Thread: What Do You Have In The Mail Right Now?

A tattered strop I got for the nice looking hardware. I hope it's in the mail, it's been almost a week.... some people just don't "mark as shipped" or add tracking.

Get a bit confused with the imperial system. You are right mainaman, it is a hair under 7/8.

2 sets of Beats Headphones 1 for me and one for my wife. So old crackers can look gangsta while listening to smooth jazz in the urban jungle.

Nice tech, guys!*

Roughly eight years ago, when I first met my (now) wife, my primary genre of nerdiness was computer gaming. I was squeaking by with an E-Machines (pre-Gateway purchase/merger), with an add-on AGP Nvidia GeForce graphics card. She asked me what my "ideal rig" would be. When I rattled off the list of parts & specs of the various components, that I had a "running tab" of in my head, it got her hot 'n bothered.

I'd finish my description with: "I could make a list that would easily top $5,000 to build a gaming PC. But my money tree never took root; and what's the point? I'd rather keep it between $400 & $750 for the initial cost, and have plenty of room/options for later upgrades."

Ah, but that was another time. I still geek out on tech, but I haven't kept up with PC tech completely. I now geek out on razor stuff as well lol.

*= I generally avoid products that have obvious "paying for the name" aspects. Or over-hyped, like Bose. I'm not saying the product is no good. I'm just sayin that there is definitely better for the money (or just as good for cheaper). For a year or two, I sold home audio equipment at the Fry's Electronics here in Indiana. I have a solid, unbiased knowledge of such things. Long story short: I would likely have gone with something by Shure, rather than Beats... if possible. Better, more accurate sound quality is achieved, IMO, with earbuds (in-ear). Pretty sure that Shure also has headphones... For the money, if you cross-reference with reviews, Plantronics is some really good quality audio from headphones! Just my $0.02.

<sigh>...... bills
