Hey! I thought you got that for your mom?

I made some purchases today :D

Asus 8400GS for the Dell Mac:

1GB PC2700 DDR RAM for my old Mac Mini G4 to see if I can make it a server, or run XBMC on it.

Sony DR-BT20NX Bluetooth headphones to try out as the clippy headphones aren't nice to the tops of my ears.

The e71 is a total crap phone. Ugh, I hate it. Yeah its sturdy but the buttons are small and cumbersome, the OS running on that phone is bloated and covered with the most incoherent myriad of confusing menus imaginable. Its an utter disaster of a phone after using an iPhone for years.

Yes I got it for my
mom I'm just waiting on some bestskinsever so she won't mess the phone up..
And I'm using my 3GS, I don't think I will ever use another phone other then the iPhone.

Has your mom used the e71 before? Its not what I would call a simple, mom friendly phone. I am highly technical and many of the features and menus boggled the heck out of me.

Why do most of the Hackintoshes I've seen have such absurdly terrible graphics cards in them? I mean, even worse than the ones that come with retail Macs, for goodness' sake. :eek: The better cards aren't that much more expensive (8800GTs can be had for <$100 these days, 4870s for ~$120) and are a far, far, far better value. Want to play CoD4? Play 1080p video without bogging down your CPU? No? Okay. But I thought most people would demand the ability to play HD video/do some light gaming with your computer having a hernia...

Because it cost me £20 and has a passive heatsink and is better than a GMA950.

Saved up to get the PS3 80 GB unit... The only games I have so far are NCAA Football 10 and Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. Waiting to get Madden 10, NHL 10, and NHL 2K10.

The graphics on the PS3 are just awesome IMO. At the end of August I am going to get a 500 GB HD to replace the 80 GB one inside.

Why do you buy such terrible knives? Or speakers?

Enjoy your passive radiators.
