there is a joke in that somewhere.

Wanted to try this and since Atari dropped the price so fast, I figure what the hell for $20.

For that price, though, nice buy. Especially including the 1GB SD card- it tends to cost a lot more than the other small media cards.

Nice to know, thanks Nomi. It just struck me as an excellent value camera, with its performance, features, and build (though supposedly the outputs' hinged doors are made of a cheaper material, but I'll live with that); I also appreciated it having a twist & swivel LCD screen and it only needing AA batteries, welcome features for when my younger, teenage brother or anyone else might use it. And getting everything (camera, sd card, case, NiHM batteries w/charger) all under $300, or in this case $285, was key.

Also, I ordered the Daredevil Vol. 3 HC months ago but it just arrived today:

Took long enough on my part to finally get, as there wasn't a rush thanks to having/reading the story in monthly pamphlets (which I can now get rid of).

Damn good buy for $20. It's got the best graphics and handling of any GTA-ish game out there. Also, Suikoden V arrived this week, and I plan to get through it once I finish up Steambot Chronicles.

One of my bigger months this year...

Last week, pre-owned goodness:

Next Week, owning my employer:

http://www.computer-store.rutgers.ed...l_axim_x50.jpg

My boss is part of a cult called the Brethren, and they don't allow their followers to use any form of consumer electronics (from TV's to Cell phones). We've managed so far by contracting our bookkeeping and whatnot out to third parties, but as the company expands, they're finding it very difficult to deal with overseas suppliers who deal almost exclusively via email. So they asked me to come up with a solution.

The solution: "Buy me that palm pc, and I'll bring it to work every day, and you won't have to look at it" - and they fell for it.

So I've spent the last little while customising it, and it now kicks all kinds of ass.

Hurrah for ignorant cults!

You aren't allowed to wear shorts in said cult. All they do is drink and fuck their cousins.

It's true.

GTA: Liberty City Stories (PS2)
Omega Boost (PS)
Syphon Filter (PS)
Pokemon Snap (N64)
Pokemon Stadium (N64)
Will be picking up a Lite on Sunday morning.

Shit, street date is tomorrow, isn't it?
