That's a telescope though lol

Nah, it's an actual camera lens made for a Hasselblad 6×6 medium format camera. It just uses technology similar to that of telescopes. A little excessive in terms of an example but, still, close enough

Intel Core i5-3320m 2.6GHz-3.3GHz (Turbo Mode), 3MB L3
Intel hd4000

Logitech K800 Keyboard (bought it used for 30eur) (I couldn't make my Apple Wireless keyboard work on linux, so...)

Logitech M705 Mouse (found it on a store with broken packaging for less 10eur, works perfect.Sold the Magic Mouse for the same price I bought this one.MM in windows sucked very hard)

My latest purchase a 64GB iPhone 5 in black! Agh so sexy! Just an amazing phone! And I bought a black incase slider, absolutely love the case on my old iPhones and love it on my 5

215 gallons of this stuff at $3.58/gal
First time home owner, this was the first time I had to purchase oil. Also paid $100 to get my burner tuned and vacuumed.

Griffin GC23139 PowerJolt

For rapid charging iPad and iPhone while on the road. I picked this based on the Wirecutter review: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-car-usb-charger/. $20 @ Amazon.

- Charge two USB devices at once, with separate charge indicators
- Delivers 10 watts (5 volts DC at 2.1 amps)

A new Macbook toolkit to replace the one that went AWOL. This one is a lot better, and is guaranteed to strip a MBP from 2009 onwards to it's component parts. As a result my MBP is now sporting 16GB of RAM

At least you don't have to pay for Jet A

Crap. How long does that last you? Hopefully a very very long time?

I have no clue, being that this was my first time getting oil. I have only been in my house for a month. I am hoping 6 months, but I will happy with 4 during the winter.

Little Big Planet Vita Kit (case, headphones, bobble head, wrist strap, dlc).

Impulse purchase while standing in Best Buy waiting to pick up ram for my powerbook (it's never too late to buy extra ram for a 2005 computer, right?).

Preorder Windows 8 Pro on Amazon with two day shipping should come on release date.

 

[BulletToothTony]

never thought that making my own White Mochas would taste exactly the same as the ones from Starbucks.

This is the syrup that starbucks uses. I have Starbucks K-cups, I bought a meat thermometer so i can bring my milk to 180 F degrees (bit hot for most people, stnrd temp is 160F) then I add 3 Pumps on my mug and BAM! I just saved $4.37

Bought this for my fiancee as an early Christmas present (REALLY early, I know...but it's getting cold here!). Spiewak McElroy in black.

And she got this jacket for me.

Is that a Chromebook? Interesting..

Question concerning Windows 8 Pro.. do those who have the "release preview" able to use iTunes? I understand that it is not supported by Windows 8 as of yet, but most of my music library is in iTunes and I don't won't want to upgrade to Windows 8 and not be able to playback all my ALAC files.

At a quick glance, I thought that was a MacBook Air.

1/1000 Columbia NX-02 (with Acreation decals) and 1/2500 Enterprise-E (with Acreation decals - still a work in progress)

Ya, it's the new one that they released yesterday. I'm curious to see how it compares to my air... and to also get one before Apple brings the ban hammer.

I'm curious how this is. I hope you'll put up a review somewhere when you get it. I think it would be great for travel when I don't want to worry about someone stealing my Air. Not that it wouldn't suck for it to be stolen, but $250 is a lot easier to swallow.

I've decided to sell my old monitor and I bought a new one. Was going to see if I could get one from Dell, but turns out Amazon has it with Saturday shipping for $250 less!

I'm glad I have natural gas, and county sewage lines.

Now THIS is devotion. Kudos to you. Were it me, I'd probably skip the coffee and drink shots of that mocha syrup straight from the bottle until I pass out from sugar overdose.

So which starbucks k-cup and what's the name of that syrup? It's hard to read the label.

Do you like your keurig? I'm thinking about getting one to save money
