I'm thinking I could:

Option A: Upgrade to a Core 2 Duo and build another media center out of my extra parts.

Option B: Get Vista Ultimate + 2 copies of Home Premium for the media centers. Then spend some of my savings to do the Core 2 Duo upgrade.

Option C: Spend it all on clothes and shoes.

Or something else...

Also, what are you spending your refund on?

Edit: Also, I have no debt, almost enough saved in the bank to pay for a new car, a decent investment and I generally save like 70% of my paychecks so I'm for sure spending this.

Are you into photography? If you don't, you might want to pick up the Canon 135L if you shoot Canon. If you shoot anything else, I cannot help you. :) 300mm f/4L IS if you do sports. The 135L is my favorite for portraits and near everything I shoot. The $900 could pay for about half of a new 85L, which would be my second recommended non-sporty choice. :)

Phone
Palm Treo 700p. Motorola Q is nice, but I don't like the lack of calendar options compared to the Palm Treo series.

Computer Stuff
24" Dell LCD anyone??? Great screen, should be able to get Vista and the screen for $900 if you shop around.

Photography: I've got a Nikon D80 with a few lenses. I could get a higher end lens but I think I'll wait till I've got more extra cash than this.

Phone: I've got an MPx220 Smartphone. I had a Cingular 8125 for a while but don't like the size of them. I plan on upgrading to the whatever replaces the Cingular 3125 (it will have 3g data and built in GPS) because I like the flip-phone form-factor.

Computer Stuff: I'm running a Dell 30" Panel with 2 20" Panels on the side. I've got a decent sound system as well (Klipsch 5.1 Ultras) I've also got a 7900GTO but I don't game (I'd like to sell it and pick up two of the 8600 Ultras or whatever they are when they come out.
