I can think of a few better uses for five large, or whatever that converts to these days… Still. Something to be said for being the top of the heap. On the same token, I’d kinda like to get an AMD Athlon FX-60, which was the fastest chip ever made for socket 939, Mr. Euclid’s SEVERELY outdated processor socket. It’d be kinda cool to be like, heh, this was teh FASTEST EVAARRRR!

Uber-badass. I used to make all sorts of mixtapes, and I’d take the cassettes apart to paint the shells different colors, then spend 40 minutes doing the labels. Oh, and go for metal. They hold up great! :) I used to use maxwell metal tapes, I forget the exact model, but they were very “heavy”, and tended to last longer than other brands.
