More RAM, seriously
I (well, my family) just got £400 for christmas so we'll be getting a new amp and speakers, and I'll be getting more RAM for my GNU/Linux PC, and the PMG5 aswell hopefully.

Goodies are, well, good!
I just got some goodies as hannukah pressies (I celebrate hannukah as I'm a jew). Here they are:
2 GB Kingston DataTraveler USB flash drive.
Logitech cordless optical mouse, has side scrolling, zoom, page scrolling and everything. Some of the features only work with Mac OS X or Windows though, which is a bummer as I use linux :S. Oh well.
Two guide/handbooks: A guide to linux and UNIX/linux commands; and a guide to the linux desktop (i.e. gnome and KDE*).
Guiness World Records 2008 :D.
The Gremlins collection - Gremlins and Gremlins 2. Never watched but it sounds good!
Small steps by Louis Sachar. It is the sequel to an extremely good book called 'Holes'.
Next it will be christmas presents!

*Gnome and KDE are not the only desktop environments out there for linux - xfce and fluxbox are two others.
