ok. Me and my girl have lived together 2 years. And I usually have pretty much everything I want. But, I decided to upgrade stuff I have with newer stuff..
I ordered it. but, she is being a pain and won't let me have it till Christmas... HOW HURTING!!! Does anyone else think this is inhumane? I got the panasonic dmc-fz18k and radeon 3850. They will be here the middle or end of next week. And I gotta wait!!!! OUCH

Was it a christmas present for yourself, or was it a purchase that happened to be in December? I hate when people say "You can't buy yourself stuff in December!" I'll buy whatever I want for myself with my own money!

They'll be obsolete by the time it's christmas!!
If you have your old graphics card box, you should intercept the parcel, swap the new one in and then give the old one to your girlfriend to keep till christmas.

I get the same thing here, funny when I buy electronics in December some how it becomes my Christmas present, since I bought it how can it be a present? Of course I gotta buy theirs too. I don't mind though I have so much electronics any other woman would probably run screaming.

haha I got them early so I'm happy :-D I wish I saw Dan's idea ahead of time I wouldn't have had to "beg" lol But, I'm overly impressed with both items the camera and video card. if you are looking for one GET THE fz18 and the radeon I haven't messed with too much but, I dunno if I'm the only one here who doesn't get that much of an overclock out of it before it burns up with heat.
and yea the december thing.. HURTING.. ok Christmas is special its 1 out of 365.25 days in a year.. But, December makes up 1/12 days in a year. 1 out of 12 is not that special. If your bday month is different than xmas as mine is than 2 months a year you have to wait to get what you buy.. so 1/6 days a year are not special. Then you factor in holidays and DAMN everyday is supposed to be special in some way..

You reckon that is annoying, My logitech wireless headphones for ipod, have broken in 3 ways band has broken twice and they refuse to charge. After finding a recall on the Logitech website, i rang up logitech and started it all was told where to find the numbers i was told that i needed to cut off the padded ear bits, which i did gave a woman all the numbers and everything needed, was going to be sent a refund for the product, and as soon as we got to the shipping i said i was in Australia and the recall was only in america, so not only do my headphones not charge they dont even have a padded ear bit and the band has broken twice due to faulty manufacturing..... Anyone in america wanna do it for me and send me the cheque???
