Sorry already have an Inspiron 8600.

And no I did not find a credit card. I have $11,000 from playing poker, have recently decided to quit poker, and now want to spend baby!

Did you already rule out a vacation/trip? You can go to some awsome places and take pictures with your camera that you already have.

Congrats on quitting and doubly on quitting ahead.

Got a wife or SO? Share. Personally, I would buy a brand spanking new computer but thats just me. The 42" plasma is good as well. Oh and I second the vacation.

Only 18? kasjfd;alskdfwlkjenasdvanrol <-- My feelings.

Hrmm, not much to buy at $1k-2k that would be a good investment towards a tech toy. Only thing I can think of that would be worth it would be a DSLR (but you already have one). Otherwise, just put the money in a bank and buy textbooks and food in college.

How about spending it on education or even starting a retirement account early? (assuming that you have access to the money. If not, pardon my interruption) :)

Education I have a scholarship and rest is paid by parents. Retirement account is not my style, I plan to be a millionaire by 20 if all goes right.

If it were me, I'd invest it...

But if forced to spend, I'd look into laptops, repainting my daily driver...garbage disposal?

Maybe a little landscaping...dunno
