Post Your Newest Toy
We've all got one. That one gadget/toy we've spent hours just messing around with because it's so damn cool to have.

Post here on what your is.

Mine is currently a Ubuntu Linux server on a old computer that I've been messing with. I've got a VNC on it, Apache, and Teamspeak.

I'm currently messing around with a Halo 3 Edition Zune 8-) . Pretty sweet, but could use some tweaks especially in the software (stripped and specialized version of WMP 11).

My life has been consumed by Neverwinter Nights: Diamond. How I went this long without discovering this masterpiece game eludes me. I've learned something too: A level 20 wizard/level 20 monk kicks SERIOUS ass.

New laptop, only week and a half I've had it.

Still trying to iron out the bumps since it's Vista, on an HP laptop, so I've got to get this baby ready.

It's named Savato. <3.

That said, already downloaded Spybot Search and Destroy, Firefox, and Trillian.

Savato needs more software modifcations though, like getting rid of the HP junk I've not yet touched. *strokes laptop*

I'm getting a laptop, immediately installing ubuntu 7.12 over it, and saying "Fuck Windows" for good. At least on my laptop.

My newest toy is actually the one I took on a trip to Toronto recently. It's a military-issue green laser, suitable for intimidating possible threats, pointing at targets, and using to distract annoying cats.

My newest toy is this forum. I tend not to pick up gadgetry. Eventually I'll be installing Windows on my new computer, which is pretty damn sexy, but until then it's this forum.

How about that laptop you recently purchased DiMono? Arent you excited about that? lol

My toy is my laptop I got in October. Ya, it's almost a year now and I still love it. The only thing besides that is my scanner. Picks up everything from Chyenne cops to Planes landing at Denver International. It rocks.

Well, I recently found old Marathon (Bungie Classic) game disc at a garage sale, so I bought it and it turns out that it runs perfectly on my Windows XP. I don't think I've had so much fun with a FPS on my computer in years. I know. I have strange FPS tastes but its fun. >.<

That is my newest toy... although it itself may not be new.

Just picked myself up a Garmin Heart Rate monitor. Does the GPS thing too. It does everything but the dishes for me. Can't until track tommarow to play with it some more!
