Had $130 in Best Buy gift cards so I decided to upgrade my laptop to more memory and a SSD.
120GB Toshiba SSD and 8GB Corsair RAM.

Woke up had some coffee and hooked it up. Just stunning. I got it up on the wall 73 inches across and I can't imagine when I get the 100 inch screen. Just got Roku hooked up so far. Maybe later I'll hook the blu-ray player. Thanks fuzz I'm so happy with your guidance & recommendation, just stunning quality.

My 2nd 3D disc. I Frankenstein which I bought a month ago came with a 3D. Looking for Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy in 3D Blu-Ray if I find it for a low price. Still waiting for the 3D glasses.:cool:

Well I finally got the 3D version used on the bay. I'm good for now with 3D movies. I'll see how I like it.

The 3D in this movie is pretty much secondary, but the movie itself is quite good, I own it as well

Got some Christmas money, this time it was my wife's turn to get a new toy though.. She picked an expensive one.

got her the i5 version with a 128gig ssd and 4gigs of ram. I really wanted to get the next step up because it had 8 gigs of ram... but it was another 300 dollars for and extra 4 gigs of ram and a 256gig ssd. That is on the same level as an Apple product mark up. I just couldn't justify it. Just sucks cause the ram is soldered to the mainboard so it is next to impossible to upgrade. It should be more then fine for what she will use it for though. Internet surfing, netflix watching, and a PC for her Silhouette Cameo diecutter-scrap booking-crafting-keeping her happy so I can spend more on audio-machine. :)
She got the purple keyboard cover.
 
Also went to Best Buy and took advantage of the Logitech Harmony recycle deal and ordered a Logitech Harmony Ultimate Home. Store didn't have one in stock so I had them ship one to me. The only down side is that I'm drowning in remotes out in the living room. I think I have about 5 or 6 I'm juggling to control everything.

If it's anything like the Harmony One that I've had for a few years now, you'll like it.

That's actually the model I went and traded in. The promotion is, recycle your old Harmony and get $100 off of either a Harmony Ultimate home or $50 off of a Harmony Control Home. I don't know that I'll use the whole home feature set anytime soon, but it's like getting the hub the hub for free after buying the Ultimate One.
 
Picked up a Google Chromecast.

Plugged it into an HDMI port in the Onkyo, BOOM!! Hit a bunch of great concerts already.

Having this much fun for $30 is ridicious!

Always wanted to see this movie(3 disc) and got a great deal for 8 bucks.
 
Installed the SSD and the RAM and man what a difference! It's like a new machine now. It's amazingly fast now.
Everyone owes to themselves to use a SSD in their computer.
