New turntable and/or some vinyl?
Xbox. et al?

Good call! I have stacks of old records in storage that I have not been able to listen to for over a decade. Only problem is figuring out where I would put the turntable, but I should be able to figure something out.

KT

I'm sure you'll figure that out
Lush fidelity > *

Speaking of which, just picked up a super rare ISIS 12inch last night, remixes of Oceanic by Mike Patton. Limited to 2500 copies worldwide.. got it for 10 bucks lol. I love Chicago

Holy shit! Is it available in any other format? I need to hear that.

KT

I don't think so, I believe it's just on vinyl

Sports fan? Could always splurge on some VIP seats to a game...
buy some really nice wine?

I did that and regret it. I still need to buy a headphone amp for mine. If you are going to go this route you need an amp.

BUY ME an AMP!!! muahaha

So an amp for you and a monitor for Feixgoon, got it.

I'm fine with HD550s anyway.

KT

Still get an amp for those. I have the HD 600's and they suck shit without amp. Yo buy me an amp and I will house you in my parents basement when you visit TO. We can LAN together and destroy D3 side by side while my de-humidifier rumbles and screams in the background!

I like to read about sports more than actually go to games. Kind of weird, but it's true. Could do some decent wine, that is always nice.

Heh, yeah, I know I'm supposed to get an amp, but running them through my sound card for games and listening to music on my PC (I rarely do that) is good enough for me.

I may take you up on the LAN party though.

I can't remember if you ended up with one of the SACD-compatible PS3s or not.

$500 doesn't get you much of anything anymore.

If you don't know how to ride a bike (motorized), you could take a weekend course for $400, but equipment rentals might set you back a fair bit.

Otherwise, there are dirtbiking courses for $300 (less equipment, cheaper bikes). Speaking of, I gotta do this sometime.

I'm not sure either. I have the 40GB with zero BC. :|:thumbsdown:

I recognize several of those words, but I have no idea what you just said.

Buy a Hippo suit to wear while you are listening to records on your new turntable.

Yeah I know, but I don't want to spend a shitwad of cash on anything right now because I'm saving for a few things. I just want a little something.

I used to have a dirt bike on my Grandfather's farm, but that was when I was really little (around 11ish) so I'm not sure if I would remember how. That sounds fun thugh.

$500 is enough for a weekend vacation. If you're really treating yourself, do you have any hobbies with national conventions/tournaments?

Personally I'd buy a netbook.

I can't imagine having two, the one I have feels more than adequate. I guess useful for some of the things you do.

Like I said before though, I can't get away for a while. I'm having a tough time even getting one day off.

I have 2 laptops already, so don't really need a netbook.

Once you are spoiled, one just feels inadequate!

You could lease a dedicated server and I can set us up a really good TF2/L4D server on it!!!

I don't get lonely, but I do enjoy cheeseburgers...and beer!

[evident]

something non tech related, but still related to one of your hobbies. it will probably last alot longer and be more satisfying overall than any tech stuff people are recommending in here!

I "rewarded" myself w/ a PS3 that i haven't turned on since christmas.... anyone wanna buy a limited edition metal gear solid gray PS3?
