I looked around at all of the deals and realized that I didn't really need anything. I added a bit of storage last year and of my 2TB, I only use about 400GB, I just bought a new machine with 4GB RAM, a bigger monitor wouldn't fit my desk, I still have about 75 of the TY DVD blanks I bought last year, and at least 100 CD blanks laying around.

I'll probably spend the $50 on the new Samsung 20x DVD burner, and eventually replace the kids' Win98 machine (it still plays all of the Disney games without problems and my IRClone-MX software won't run on Vista), but there's not much else I need.

I did go through my periodic backup of everything to 2 sets of DVD's and 2 external drives. The in-laws are here so they take one set home to put in their safe, and one goes in mine.
