If you really can't think of anything then put it in the bank. You don't HAVE to spend it right away.

It doesn't look awesome, but it's good.

I'd save it. Learn to save. Seriously.

If I had $500 to spend on toys, I'd get what you already have.
A 9700 and a decent 19" CRT.

Do you have good surround speakers?

Really. LCD. hmmmmm. I do play games but whatrs the point of an lcd when i have a nice 9in monitor there anyway

I was actually thinking or building a subwoofer for my stereo or trying out those I-glasses HRV lcd displays. There like $250 on ebay and sell for $700 new. I like the idea of a 70in tv in front of me. Anyone have experiance with thesE>

When you're young you HAVE to spend money. Saving just does not compute! :)

It does compute but if i put it in the bank, i will just keep taking it out and spending it on beer, food so and so.
This money is extra i can spend for whatever.
