X-Mas and Boxing Day aftermath.........

Now that Christmas and Boxing Day have passed, I'll update on new stuff I have picked up and just received. On X-Mas Eve I purchased online from Future Shop as part of their Boxing Day sale thing a 24' HP LCD Monitor (HP L2445m) for my new PC build (came to a total of around $284 and change). I also purchased a MSI laptop for my dad (my dad will pay me back for it once I get the bill) alongside with it. Here are what the specs look like (except that the one I got has a 500GB HD). I have just received the two mentioned items earlier on, as I type this. On the same night I placed that order, I also purchased from TigerDirect an Ultra Chilltec heatsink kit and floppy disk/card reader combo drive for $94.97 and $26.87 respectively. Total was $137.80 Cdn after taxes. Now onto the movie/DVD/Blu-Ray end of things. I purchased Family Guy volume 7, Monsters vs. Aliens and Underworld: Rise Of The Lycans for $14.97 (the first two DVDs) and $12.50. And yes you heard it right, for the first time EVER I have purchased some Blu-Ray movies! For $14.97 each, I purchased Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs, Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian and X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Although Ice Age: Dotd and Night At the Museum each included the standard DVD versions in the package, which is why I am slowly but surely gonna eventually start collecting Blu-Ray movies. And besides sooner or later........I WILL be including a Blu-Ray burner on my new system. So clearly either way you look at it, the Blu-Rays are becoming the much BETTER deals.
