So...i cant believe its afternoon and no XMAS goodies thread!!
 

SO..what did the fat man bring all you gents/gals??

Unfortunately, i didnt get any goodies for the car but i got lots of $$$ that will be thrown into the boost project. besides that.....

-Inspiron E1505 laptop (with too many goodies to list right now, if you're curious then let me know and ill post up the goodies)

-Givenchy Pi cologne from the girlfriend/ Prada from the mother

-Lots of clothes

-key finder thingy (which i really need with my luck lately)

-bundles of giftcards

oh and we (Colorado) got hammered by a blizzard which gave me 3 days out of school, which happen to be the 3 days we were taking finals!!!


now time to gaze online store in search for go fast goodies



(oh and this thread isnt the "my dad can beat up your dad" type thread) :)

Well no doubt my dad can whoop your dad,

but congrats on the goodies. I got a Latitude D620, what screen did you get with the inspiron?

Nice, my dad has that model that his new job lended to him. lucky bastard, they gave him a blackberry too. :vash:

15.4 inch (of course) TrueLife Wide-screen WXGA.....not the best...but next to it. hehe. kinda get out of hand when picking which goodies to add on. Tried beefing it up as much as i could without spending too much.

im only really going to use it for lots of gaming, tuning the mx5 when it gets around to that, and school work.

Nothing cool on X-mas day, but arriving soon...

-Wheels and tires
-Porter Cable 7424 w/ pad set
-Dennis Hale racing school at T-hill
-MOMO Start for passenger side
-Two packages from my buddy, one of which I believe to be a turbo. :D

I also received the same Dell Inspirion with the Dual Core Upgrade. I was floored. My fiance and her family are the shit.

I didn't get anything because of the snow, nothing got delivered in time.

I did get a les paul style guitar kit which I've promptly spent $300 on new wiring and new gibson 57 pickups.

my christmas was terrible, my fiance has a fever and stayed home in bed, and the car cover my mom ordered me is on backorder and won't see it for a couple weeks.

I got a new black Craftsmen tool cabinet/chest and a bunch of shit for the house I bought last month. Was pretty decent for me this year.

I win! Best gift was 30 minutes of wheel time in sister's bf's 360 Modena! Even though it was still wet out from earlier rain. He was a great sport about it. He also had a Maserati Quattroporte in the garage. :eek: :bigtu:
And not only did I not wreck it, I didn't get any tickets either.

Got various gift cards, an ipod, liquor, and other miscellanious things. Most thoughtful gift was an led flashlight (I was complaining I couldn't find a flashlight since we moved).

Oh, my ex-marine dad can spank all ya'lls dads simultaniously.

The WXGA is better in direct sunlight anyways.

I got 2 $50 bills, and some clothes. My mom bought me some Oakley Juliets for my bday in Sept and that counted as some of my Christmas present too.

that sucks. yeah we picked my dad up from the denver airport and it was insane up there. never seen so many grumpy people in one spot at one time.

sorry to hear. do something together when she feels better to make up for it :)

Nice!!! let us know whats in the packages from the bud, hopefully a snail...keep those fingers crossed.


WideOpenTuning, yeah the laptop is sweet for the price. im not that extreme when it comes to computer performance, the inspiron suits me well...i love it! might be a little bulky when mounted in the miata for some runs, but hey, it'll only be temporary until i get a cheap laptop to use just for tuning and such.

Wife got me a 25x12x3 IC - how'd she know?! ;)

Aluminum racing jack and aluminum stands, 50' retaractable air hose reel, 40' retractable extension cord reel, timing light, new drill (corded since my cordless is always dead when I need it most), power inverter for laptop tuning, battery jump box, new downpipe and cat, and enough moolah to buy my new clutch.

I got a badass bomber-style leather jacket... filled with money! All the pockets had $20 bills in them, it was great. I thought i had found all the money, then i found an inside pocket later and pulled out another 100 bucks!. About $200 bucks all in all, and its going towards a clutch.

Sounds like some of you guys got somebadass laptops, ive had mine for a while but ill share the specs, i use it mostly to game, and come on this forum.
Its a Intel Centrino Dual core 2ghz, 667mhz fsb, 15.5" Widescreen lcd, Ati mobility radion x1900-512 mb. 1gig of ram, 120gig hd, etc.

Runs every game ive thrown at it like a champ, what do games do you guys play?, we should play sometime.

Yeah, im a dork when it comes to electronics, but my real love is cars and bikes.

Merry xmas!

Edit: Oh and ColoradoSpringsMiata, i too was snowed in for the last 2 days of my finals, so i only had to do one =P. Only downside is that same storm held my package(turbo kit) for 3 days =(, should be here today though!!
