So Dad sent me this yesterday http://h20435.www2.hp.com/# . It's the Blackbird002 series. Since he knows we're into gaming, he said it would be a nice computer for it – for the very low price of $2700 (for the low end model – click on the customize link to see the full range of prices). Now, Dad can get us a discount on it, but it still doesn't bring the price below $2000 :-( . I guess we'll have to keep dreaming. And of course, Charlie wants the liquid cooled one...
It snowed here!! Yay! We got about 5 inches or so at the house. Since we live on a street with one of the elementary schools on it, even though school was canceled, they were plowing while I was out shoveling. Sadly, I think that was the only time they came by – as our street is now a big sheet of frozen slush. I need to get out and take pictures.
And someone stayed up to late last night raiding, and is now paying for it… I think I'll need to go find some caffeine soon.

:( Early night tonight, I promise. In the meantime, tea is always a good thing on a cold day.
I've been watching them plough the major streets from out my office window. I don't know how much they can do about the black ice layer that I ran into on the first part of my drive in, though... I think that's only fixable with salt or sand. Or spring. :)
