What was your latest tech purchase?

My 5yo laptop is dieing so I just picked up a Lenovo Y580 with an i7 CPU (4 core, 2.4/3.4GHz), Nvidia GTX 660M 2GB GPU, 8GB RAM, 15.6" 1080p display, and Blu-Ray burner for $700. I also picked up a Crucial M4 mSATA 256GB to compliment the sloooow 1TB 5400rpm HDD.

First computer purchase in a long time so I am excited to set it up tonight--big jump from my old laptop which had a 2GHz Core2Duo, 2GB RAM, 8400 GPU, 13.3" display (1280x800), and 120GB 7200rpm HDD and DVD drive.

Wow where at? We just picked up an ASUS laptop with almost the same specs but has an i5, non-1080p display, and no optical disc player at all for the same price

I bought a Galaxy S4, also bought a new phone for the fiance. Prior to that, I think it was mobo + CPU + RAM that I bought used from Craigslist posting

Auria EQ276W. 27" IPS, 2560x1440, $340. Debating if I should keep it... it's perfect otherwise.

And 2 C2D T7700s along with 4x4GB DDR2 SODIMMs. Time for upgrades!

Kindle Fire 7 32 GB.

My wife didn't believe me that she couldn't use it to text like she could with a cell phone...so now she wants to send it back...



(yes, I know there are ways to make it work, but it's not "texting")
