I had more fun with hacking it with the 1.5 firmware. and uploading the iso's of the mem card... than actually using the damn thing..
it was just too small for my hands..

Wacom pad. Paid ~260 for education price. I'll probably get around to using it some day...

Yep, home&auto insurance, never had a claim against either.

I bought a $2000 HDTV in 2001. Used it, but never in HD mode. And it broke and I replaced it with a new plasma ... with HD COmcast :)

So, that old HDTV was never really "used".

When I was twenty I had two events a couple of months apart that required that required a tux. For the second one, I realized I could've bought one with the combined renting costs. So I bought one, and it's sat in the closet for three years. Boy was that a sucky idea.

Digital Camera. Let my son borrow it for a trip to the Dominican Republic where it was promptly stolen.

Pioneer DEH-P9400MP car CD player (~$600). Bought a couple years ago. Never installed it for a few different reasons (none of which had to do with this player). Still have it in the box. :(
Yes, sad, I know.

Also a 32" LCD HDTV I got last BF, actually less than the above CDP, decided not to keep, never opened, and sold recently.

Sorry no bikini pics. Too chilly tonight. Matter of fact it's cold enough to light a fire but we're all out of wood.

This QX6700 o/c to 3.6+ with 1.5V would make a nice heater. :Q

Wait a minute.... you've got this kind of kicka$$ gaming hardware but never used it?? :confused: Um... why???


cute butt btw :p
