Did you get what you asked for? Enjoy your time with family and friends? I'd like to know how you spent it ☺️

Well, let's see now.  I got a new gaming chair, a new set of Klipsch speakers, a nice bottle of Barolo Grappa, and I just received from Amazon a few new wireless mice (EVGA X20 @ $20 each).  We spent time with our grandkids and our son, along with my wife's brother.  It was a good time and nice weather too.

Sounds like a wonderful xmas @BigAl01!  what did you get for a gaming chair?

[BigAl01]

This one called ‘Emerge’.  I found it on sale at Staples.

And is it comfortable for those long hrs of gaming?

[BigAl01]

I haven't really tried it out yet.  I've been gaming on other machines.  I have 11 gaming machines on my LAN you know.

Only 11? I think you need one more haha

I have power limitations, especially in the basement area.  I do have a few more 'non-gaming' computers that just need a decent video card upgrade, but it's rather cramped around the work bench with four computers in that area.

I posted this in the New Years Resolution topic because it kind of fit there as well.  I guess you could say mine was pretty good but a have to situation.  My 30 year old truck is causing too many problems.

The funny part about this thing is; as computer literate as I am this thing drives me nuts trying to access certain features.  It's no wonder they have so many accidents with all of these distractions.  Only 3 distractions I need on a vehicle: fuel gauge, speedometer, and tach.  You see I'm one of those types that don't even use the clutch when shifting up through the gears, and sometimes when downshifting.  I don't like distractions when I drive.  I stay focused on the road and all of my surroundings and keep both hands on the wheel with seat belts fastened.
