just came from the store with these, good rose wine
I refuse to believe booze that comes in a carton can in any way be considered good. It might get you drunk and might be good for cooking but as far as actually good...

You can try to tell me that much like food in a squeezy tube that it is just how it is done around you but I won't believe it.

Anyway did actually get a game the other day. In a charity shop I found a second run (those doing UK think the classic blue "sold out" discs with the orange banded white cover) copy of worms 2 and worms armaggedon on PC. Bonus is somewhere around here I still have my cheat printout from when worms 2 was current. Some call me hoarder, I just know it all comes useful in the end.

Also ended up ordering an Atari 2600 cap refresh kit for $10, since the Atari 2600 I bought ages ago was DoA and I haven't bothered fixing it yet.

Pretty sure it just needs a new voltage regulator (the old one looked blown), but having all new caps just in case will be nice.

More random purchases, a friend of mine offered to sell me an old launch day Xbone that's seemingly overheating (or shutting off after 15 minutes, anyways, so I would assume it's that) for only $40, so I figured why not? I do need one to complete my console collection, since I gave mine away to my little bro.

So ordered a replacement fan (and heatsink, for good measure) for $15, and I'll pick up the Xbone sometime after Christmas. So a good $65 for an Xboner, which is definitely not bad these days even if I'll never touch it :lol:

The asus aio's are really bad, I would have swapped that out and why a 1600w pus, you could have gotten away with 600w
Hehe no hardware is perfect .... Swap it to which model? ...... 1600 for future proofing, what if suddenly new tech needs more power.

I can't buy things like this every month so since I have the money why not? Hehe
