I am really struggling with finishing Christmas shopping for my wife. Every year, there has been a clear-cut favorite for the "big" gift. None this year.

So here's a crazy idea that a quick look at ebay suggests IS doable. Sell my current year old 5970 for about $399. A look at used 5970s that have sold recently suggests it's not unreasonable. Sell the 250GB Xbox 360 Kinect bundle that I won but never used for a similar ~$390. Upgrade to 2x GTX 570s in SLI or something similar. Looks like I'd end up with a net positive or negative $20 or so out of it all. Not sure I want to part with the Xbox but I've had it here for months and months and haven't done anything with it. And most of the games I really like are not on the 360, they are on the PC, Wii or handhelds. Would you do this?

Here's a question for you alpha. I know you're an amateur photographer. I asked this in another post. How do you capture candid photos of people? For artistic photography of people going about their daily lives you want the shots to look completely candid. Yet people can get angry if you take their photo without their permission. But it's so often the case that once you ask permission they then unconsciously act unnaturally. You often don't want the subject to look at the camera or be even aware the camera is there.
