Money to join the PC Master Race, isn't that the best present? other than that the usual, clothes and after shaves.

Wife got me my 1st liquid cpu cooler a Seidon 120M for my computer :)
I don't overclock so this is just fine for me ...
Also got a Metal Detector which i gave it a go yesterday with great success finding a metal rod and a 50p that my youngest found funny to hide in my path :)

A corsair K70 with Cherry mx blues. I love it <3

I got a bottle of aftershave, Moaning of Life Bluray, bottle of Amaretto, Atari 520 STe, SEGA Game Gear and a SNES. The 3 systems came with games and my mum bought me a large bundle of ST games.

I am also getting the UltraSatan external SCSI SD Hard Drive for the ST and an additional external floppy drive in the next week or so.

I got a 7800mA PNY powerbank. Its brilliant, I'm able to charge my phone and my tablet, at the same time, when away from home

I just got loads of money for computer things, I am saving for a graphics card :)

*double-take* wait... did you have Christmas in the same decade that I did this year? :O_o1:

Got an SSD, finally! Breathed some life into my crusty old PC :)

Nothing computer related but the wife bought me a George Benson signature Guitar LGB300.

Nope, back to 1989 / 1990!!

I collect all these old machines and play on them regularly, already have C64 with 2 tape decks & disk drive, Spectrum 128 +2A, Megadrive with MegaCD & Master System adapter and an Amiga 600 with EasyADF compact flash adapter to write the emulator files back onto disk.

What I REALLY want next year is a DeLorean so I can travel back and buy these machines new!!

Huh, all I got was a Colonoscopy, (a right pain in the arse !!), but managed to get Christmas dinner on Boxing day. Oh and I got a new mouse CM storm recon, just starting getting to grips with it.

I got a CD dj turntable so now up to 4 decks. 2 vinyl and 2 cd. Just need to find room for it now.

Got a superman onesie and aftershave. No boxers or socks this year. :(

I got some nice thick socks,, chocolate, couple of tubs of celebrations, a few oranges, 3 Black library books about space wolves and dwarfs. main present was a Memo HD 7.
that's about it.

got my sister and dad 8 bags of sainsburys own brand value instant coffee, best before date of November.
someone was chucking them out at shopmob so I grabbed them :) free presents ftw.

its not the price of the gift, its the thought that counts :p dad and sister were complaining that I drank all the coffee, so I got them some replacements :)

More Chilli related products than one man can consume in a lifetime (well ok, a week), Chilli sauces, dried chillis, chilli grinder, chilli vodka and finally chilli gummy bears.

Other than that, booze and enough money to get a new PC desk

I got the EVGA GTX780Ti SC ACX in a manner of speaking, but I might (most likely) have to give this back as soon as the owner decides he is ready for it.
