NOTE: ESHRAI - DO NOT READ THIS. Just hit the back button right now. I know you want to know what I got you, but you're not allowed to read this thread. Just wait till Tuesday. If you dont hit back, I'll be very upset with you. I'm trusting you to not read any further. Promise? Ok.








































OK, so - Here's what I got her.
I'm starting to notice a trend with my gifts. This is what I got her for her birthday. They both go along with the one of these (slightly different specs) that I got her a while back.

I think she'll like it. You think it's a good christmas present?

<< Ummmm, are these gifts for you to use? Hardware for your girl? :confused: >>



It's all hers. she takes pictures, scans them, and now she wants to be able to watch DVD's on her laptop.

I've barely even used any of it.

OK, I'm going to explain this whole DVD drivbe tihng a bit better. She moved into a new place a few months back. She rents a roiom in a house, and she doesn't have a TV. I bring her TV shows recorded as DIVX on CD sometimes, and she (or we) watches them on the laptop. She has a few movies on DVD that she's had since before she moved, and she's complained a couple times about not being able to watch her movies on her laptop, like we do with the TV shows.

There, I hope that helps a bit.

Because "normal" women like girly stuff like purfume and jewlery... yours likes computer hardware and I envy you soo much :) you can actually buy a present for her that you know about, you dont have to go blindly store to store just to find something you hope she likes and you hardly know what is.

<< ooh! I have that scanner... it's very nice >>



So do I. Compusa was out of the older model, so they let us buy this one for about $70.
