JDWTopGuy's Journal: The day after

Ahh. For some reason I keep thinking how funny it would be to sing "I'm dreaming of a white Kwanzaa". Get it? A "white" kwanzaa?

Anyway, I got $130, chocolate, the spider-man game for PC, and a remote control Mini Cooper. I also had a glass of grape juice spilled on me (and it wasn't my fault).

That mini cooper is awesome, it's incredibly fast and it's a huge scale. I'm not sure what the scale is, but it's bigger than 1:6.

I have a hard decision to make. I'm replacing my PowerBook in the next month or so. I should have about $2,000 to spend. Do I buy a dual 1.25 GHz PowerMac G4, or do I stick with the iBook/PowerBook?

I could get an ipod, but the problem there is that it doesn't play oggs and as far as I know, has poor connectivity with linux.

The Rio Karma is absolutely perfect, because it is large enough to hold my entire collection, it uses standard ethernet + java for syncing (as far as I know, all you need to upload music to the karma is a web browser with java support), and it plays ogg vorbis (I have 5+ GBs of vorbis, no mp3s at all).

On my next day off, I'm going to go to futureshop and get them to order me a ka
