Hi ANYONE, ANYONE AT ALL; lend me your ears (and eyes)!

Hello? (crickets.....)

Fine.

I really, really wanted a Gran Turismo like videogame for Thanksgiving. I get Thankgiving presents up to $64. I picked that awesome Forza Motorsport 3. I really did buy Dragon age Origins. Sorry, with my underachiving ping count on my hilariously slow broadband connection which BTW still got me Windows 7 Ultimate and a few mp3 files and some other apps, I can't MMORPG with anybody and guarantee a great time except for Guild Wars, you know, because I can stomach the insanity of ping rate. I love that game so much. Be nice to the handicapped.

And that Geforce GTX 380 has been pushed to mid-December 2009. The core is called the GF-100 and it has 1.5 GB and about 2.5 Teraflops of DirectX 11 sweetness. It'll suck to the Geforce GTX 395 (not 295), but makes the Christmas list. I have to deal with an ancient DirectX 9.0b Radeon 9800 XT and just unappreciated Geforce 8800 GTX which yeah runs everything fine in that old Athlon 64 X2 5000+, 2 GB of RAM beast next to my other newer beast I type this on.

See, I know the truth. You buy games and nobody cares (hardly) SO I BUY HARDWARE INSTEAD. People care more so here! And digicameras don't really matter past the DIGIC III processor in my Rebel XSi. Got to tell you, I'm barely ahead with my powerhouse GTX 380 GPU and that is karma level for the underemployed (part time looking for full time employee).
