Toys for boys
Christmas is coming up. Buy me something from this list and I’ll be happy for at least six months.
- Apple iPod. This is easily the best MP3 player on the market. Sure, you can get portable players with more storage for less than the cost of an iPod, but they’re simply not as nice as an iPod. Or as small as an iPod. Or as cute.
- Apple iBook. I really want a good laptop, and I’m very curious about Mac OS X. I can kill two birds with one stone and get an iBook. My current laptop is an old Cyrix 100MHz that’s little more than a glorified SSH terminal that I mostly use to IRC from my bed. It runs Debian Linux in text-mode only.
- Digital camera. It would be great if I could take pictures whenever I felt like it and put them in the gallery.
Uh. Well, that was all that I could think of at the moment. Not exactly cheap toys. But I’ll probably buy the iPod within a few months. I also need to buy a Firewire card, since my motherboard doesn’t have Firewire ports…
