I just bought 3 Mac Minis (1.83 Core 2 Duos) for a project at work.  ($330.00 each).  I'm going to try to put together advertising kiosks with them and some flat-screen TVs.  It's still in the early stage at this point.

Remember the Mac Cube? Those things were crazy! My old boss was a huge fan of them.


Smart choice with the minis! I never thought of how easy they would be in kiosk use.

Looks like a futuristic garbage can.

Goozex sent me Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood and House of the Dead II (even though I had COJ on my list since it came out... :/ now i'm disappointed since RDR just came out)

The Mac Cube was awesome, but expensive as Hell.  It was like $10,000.  I think it looked more like a Futuristic Toaster than a garbage can.

My digital media unit lecturer did all his lectures with the aid of a cube.
It's basically just a g4 eMac/iMac but in a small case.


Bought a new hdmi cable because my girlfriend needed one for her viewing tv.

Just ordered Alan Wake from Gameplay.co.uk.

I'm getting goosebumps.

A Rogers Video (Canadian version of Blockbuster and AT&T wirless jammed into one store) in town is closing up shop.
They started their liquidation sale today, and I was first in line when it opened up this morning.
I picked up brand new copies of Time Crisis 4 (w/guncon 3), Virtua Fighter 5 (for 10 bucks, I won't feel gipped if/when Final Showdown comes out), God of War III, Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time, Lego Rock Band, Final Fight: Streetwise, and Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box, all for 160 bucks.

Ratchet a crack in time is one of my favourite games this gen, I really enjoyed getting the platinum on that.

I've never actually played a Ratchet and Clank game before.

Bought some clothes so I look at least respectable when I accept my video awards ¬_¬

Scored Sonic Pinball Party for $7, effectivly completing my Sonic Game Boy Advance collection. Mostly because I wanted to write about all of them but didn't want to base my opinion off of emulators.

I need to be getting Pinball of the Dead. :)

The only one I didn't manage to pick up was Sonic Battle

You got to be kidding me. You better review it. Thoroughly!
