While not a gift, per se, Q1 will see the first New Computer From The Ground Up for myself and a couple other folks, primarily to have the horsepower to play Supreme Commander... the fact that such a system will make World of Warcraft look ever-so-shiny is merely a pleasing side-effect.

I feel like we've been kicked back to the turn of the century in the last couple of months, especially in the video card market - with compelling offerings from both ATI and nVidia at attractive prices, it's no longer a foregone conclusion at checkout time, with the only consideration being "Which heatsink has the coolest graphics?" Admittedly, Intel is stomping all over AMD in the CPU department, especially in the multi-core segment (making this the first time since 2000 that I'm looking at running a Pentium - back then, it was dual P3's).

But, yeah - gift certificates to electronic toystores have lost their "impersonal" stigma, and are the gift to give and get this year.

I remember that magazine cover. I was eleven and wanted just about everything in the photo, the robot in particular.

One additional tag you may want to append - "Winter-een-mas" (courtesy of Ctrl-Alt-Del and Ethan's deranged imagination therein....)

Wintereenmas is the last weekend in January, otherwise I most certainly would have. :)
