hopefully the next guy i date will understand my need to buy computer related stuff.

I treat your computer purchases the same way as lingerie. I dont care what you buy as long as I get to help pick it out. 😉
 
When I get married I'm going to keep a percentage of my paycheck in a different account. Might even file taxes seperately too.
 
I just open the dungeon door and yell down to her. Sometimes it's hard to hear her response over her screaming and the barking jackals so I just assume it's ok to buy the stuff.

then upgrade your damn computer!
 
I just buy it, then endure the beating afterwards... I real got a whooping' for my 9500Pro...

I just can't imagine the bludgeoning I'll get when my Shuttle nForce2 XPC hits the doorstep😀
 
<------Very lucky, because wife is very cool about my purchases.

Of course she has some pretty cool toys too, I'm putting together a refurb SFF PC from Newegg for her today😀

She also claimed the Sharp Zaurus I picked up last week🙁

Edit:

Wait a minute, I should be monitoring her computer related stuff....
