    You have an Altima don't you? I figured they got better mpg..

    I drove my cousin's '72 Duster for a Texas summer. Black vynil seats, no A/C, 10mpg max and that was if I was driving like a good boy which is pretty hard to do when you've got 350 horses under your righ foot Premium gas too.. That was an expensive summer.

    I've been spending a lot lately;
    A ticket for The Avengers (in 3D),
    An Iced cappucino at Tim Hortons,
    About $60 in a bar last night,
    A snack at Amir,
    $70 of gas this morning,
    A 250g bag of doritos (light meal O_O),
    An Antec 920 cooler.

    That'll be enough spending for the week.

    New keyboard for my G73, the one i have has at least one key with a semi functional mechanism. Could have been there for a while as i rarely use my G73's integrated keyboard these days.

    Prolimatech megahalems LGA1156 bracket (not for a prolimatech cooler lol)
    ADATA 32GB Micro SD card
    18" SATa cable
    Molex to 3pin fan adapter.

    Still haven't bought those headphones and i'm debating whether to get a 256GB M4 that is rather cheap right now at ncix.ca, not that i need it, but more capacity would be nice for the G73.

    I'd rather get a matching third monitor at the price I did than having one next-gen monitor and two previous-gen monitors. If there were any sort of difference in the LCD configurations (backlights, screen coatings, etc) my eyes would pick it up and I'd regret it.

    I just found out Dell pulled some trickery and split my order into two pieces (where one item was a $0 mark put on orders for educational programs). They claimed the entire order shipped when in fact only the $0 "thing" "shipped" (read: they sent me an email). So now I'm not sure when I'm getting the third monitor . Oh well, at least I got free two-day shipping when it does come off the production line.

    I'll post pics when I can.
