Nice camera Pongo! That's an excellent choice, spoil yourself!
I really want to upgrade my digital camera, I have a Canon Powershot. I still have my Pentax 35mm if I want really good shots...

My wife and I bought a new Pentax 35mm this year the week before our 2nd boy was born. She spent the two days before going into labor searching for and researching cameras. Nice Pentax ZX-7 I might add. It has given her a new hobby and she loves taking pictures of everything.

When she got it the camera was $400 with a 2nd Tamron 70-300 zoom lense and it came with a 30-90 zoom.

I like the idea of a camara that you can tweak once you learn how too.
But if you dont think I should get it I guess I wont.

I never said you shouldent get it...honestly its probably a damn good camera...i just prefer manual...capt. apathy hit it spot on...

I was watching football on Saterday and my girlfriend threw a present at me in a nice spiral..(wasnt really that nice). She told me to go ahead and open it and it was an official NFL game ball. So now I have a football to bash when I cheer instead of the coffee table..
Might end up being my best present this year..

Not bad Munkii. I just picked up a Dell Inspiron 8600 for $1500 after rebate.

[list=1]Intel 1.5ghz Pentium "M" (equivalent to about a 2.4ghz with half the voltage. Less heat/battery consumption)
512 DDR
GeForce FX 5200 (would have rather had the 9600 "laptop version")
WinXP pro
Software (much I could care less for, but Mcafee for a year)
Integrated wireless and physical ethernet port
56k modem
15.4" screen (wide aspect ratio)
DVD-CD burner
and other stuff[/list]

I love it so far. Going to get a Netflix account and start ripping/making my own DVD library

On the gun theme, I bought myself a scope mount for my mini14.

Sorry for the crappy pic.
