Well, now I'm waiting for a Dell Inspiron B130 laptop, refurbished, from an eBay seller. You see I'm moving soon, and I need something to keep occupied while the house gets organized.

Funny, teraflop, I've got a Dell Inspiron B120! As for packages, I just got my GBA Movie Player (M2) SD version last night, and it rocks! I've got Advent Children on there, and a few songs all on a half a gig card. Expect a review/video review from me tomorrow if I can get that damn camcorder of mine to connect to the computer...

Now if I only had a 32x...
ha,

local thrift store= knuckles chaotix complete= 50 cents

Nice pick up (as I'm assuming you bought it

). I'm still happy with my deal though; all the other Chaotix games I find are more and only feature the cart.

I'm waiting for an RS232 to TTL cable, paid $16 for it cause I was too impatient to make one myself, but based on how long it's taking to get here I'm thinking I should have just made it myself (been waiting 9 days now.)

I'm also waiting for a 15" CRT monitor and a 20GB hdd, paid nothing for them, they're for work, should get them monday morning.

And I think I have 3 rolls of toilet paper sitting around here somewhere

I am going to lock this topic. My reasoning is as follows:

1) This list could go on forever, thus wasting bandwidth forever

2) This topic is pointless and does nothing for anybody, expect let you impress people with things you've ordered. Which again, serves no purpose for the community. In my opinion spending money is not impressive, building things with what you buy is. Granted that's my personal opinion but since we all here share a hobby I think you can understand my point.

Now while this will annoy some people and make them ask "so why is [insert other silly topic] OK?" here are my reasons:

1) A topic such as "what kind of music do you like" or "what's your favorite game" has revelance as it shows a person's taste and opinions, not just what they've used Paypal for.

2) Posts such as "Think of a name for this", the Grand Theft Portable thing, BlackBox or polls require a person to be creative and/or express an opinion and support it creatively. The "waiting for a package" topic is akin to a poll asking people what's outside their living room windows.

3) Any seemingly pointless topic/poll started by me is always acceptable as I pay for this site and am the reason for it being here. That said, my topics and polls will always make you think and come up with creative ideas and opinions.

Again, sorry for the long explanation but I don't usually close topics personally (especially long and popular ones) so I thought I'd explain myself.
