    I didn't get much this year, but I did get a Dremel Multi-Pro kit! Woot!! No more borrowing/putting off plans!!!

    And instead of my fiancee and I spending too much on each other and surprising each other, we spent too much together knowingly! We decided (her idea) to buy an X-Box and a few games!
    I chose Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 and she chose Simpsons Road Rage!

    Now before people start battling over which console is best in this thread, keep in mind she and I are both college students in the US, meaning we are going into thousands of dollars of debt and don't have too much money to burn, so we got the xbox because we have played & liked it, and really aren't up for hearing negative stuff about it just yet... :p
    And if you haven't played The Simpsons: Road Rage, play it!!!

    it was a joke, because computer shopper is an add mag, with only a few articles, but they are good articles, i was trying to poke fun at how much of Maximum pc has turned in to adds only. the early editions of Maximum pc had very few adds, but now it feels more like a catalog. and yes i did just re-new my maximum pc mag, 3 years :p

    i have a few of these 4d mag cells, when i was working security, they would not let us carry any sort of defencive weapons, ie no sticks, battons, pepper spray, nothing but a whisle. so we all started carring the 4d flashlights, and let me tell you, they work for more then just lighting up the hallways/walkways at night :)
