Logitech G-13 (when it comes out)

I also got a Macbook Pro last month :D

So far? New Yamaha Subwoofer, 8GB flash drive, Roland HD Lite electronic drum kit, a Tama Artwood Custom Maple Snare with a Pearl Snare stand, a trip to Seattle to visit my mom for a week, lots of clothes, some books including the Sports Illustrated Collection of Swimsuit photos, BSG Miniseries DVD, NIN The Fragile CD set, and I will be buying myself a Sony Vaio from Newegg for about $1000 all told.

A very very good Christmas for me so far, and more to come!

Money's tight, but my wife and I splurged and got ourselves the nice copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard:



This one will stay on the shelf to look nice and so we can feel good about our money going to support an amazing offer and also a charity, and we'll probably buy the cheap version so we can read it, too.

300 rounds 7.62X54R Bulgarian steel core heavy ball (brass cased even) and a copy of left 4 dead. For a Buddy of mine

A talking storm trooper helmet and light saber for my friend's son because I couldn't find the noisy electric fireman's helmet (I know, she's totally going to hate me for that)

A Nintendo Wii gun for my friend, (that should make up for the storm trooper helmet)

A couple of barbie movies for my friend's daughter

A gift certificate to a nail salon for my sister.

Two cases of Guinness extra stout for another friend.

An extra Wii remote for the bar owner up the street.

Uhh, I guess that's it.

Sweet, my sister-in-law just sent me the Fight Club special edition DVD! Now I own two of my top three favorite movies (bought Serenity forever ago), and I just need to get off my lazy butt and buy Children of Men finally.

Merry Christmas, spidey: http://www.esquire.com/the-side/richardson-report/obama-marijuana-legalization-122308

If true, it will be the first sensible thing I've seen him suggest.

I think I'm going to ask for one of the new Logitech G13s, just to piss off slime. :P
Dec 24, 2008 slime73 link
I will have mine as soon as Logitech decides to release them in Canada... they're already out in the U.S. :(

Also, the Obama campaign on weed and other things:

"Q: "Will you consider legalizing marijuana so that the government can regulate it, tax it, put age limits on it, and create millions of new jobs and create a billion dollar industry right here in the U.S.?" S. Man, Denton

A: President-elect Obama is not in favor of the legalization of marijuana."

The G13 at least has OSX support. Both G11 and G15 lack that. For no obvious reason, too: Logitech would be the first HID developer to fill that gap for the mac, they'd stand to make a lot of money.

Oh well.
Dec 24, 2008 slime73 link
The G13's OSX software might also work with the G15, but I haven't tested it.
Dec 24, 2008 toshiro link
I'll test it with the G11.

I got a G11 keyboard. Marble Trackman Wireless. And an atomic, digital, alarm clock..

I cleaned up!
