"Ok, I would like to confess to being low-class enough to think this would be really spiffy to own. Even if it would stand out like a sore thumb with all the other furniture I'd buy if I had that kind of cash lying around."

LEGOS!

"Ok I should have known better than to go surfing the Lego website. But damn do they have some neat stuff on there. Lego viking longboat, Lego police motorcycle, Lego street sweeper!, lots & lots of Lego people!, Lego Ferrari transport truck, Lego ambulance...

You get the idea. :)

Sadly, I haven't really plyed with my Legos for a long while. I have them in my room, and even dump them all out sometimes, but I tend to loose interest pretty quickly. Ah well."

Screeny goodness

"So the cheap $100 17" CRT I bought last year has already died[1]. So I'm down to one monitor again, and after using two for a couple years now this is really frustrating and annoying.
I've been thinking about getting myself a pair of 17" active-matrixs LCDs (like these). They'd free up a ton of desk space (two big monitors eat desk space like nothing else). And they'd give me a lot more layout and desk options. Plus they'd be really cool. :)

Course, I've got Xmas shopping, and the Subbie needs a clutch soon so I'm going to have to hold off. I might buy myself a replacement CD-RW drive soon though so I can burn CDs again."
