    Bought a nice reconditioned Asus E-Book PC for 15'000 yen to replace that ageing heap of crap Viao I've been using in work. Now my desk is much less cluttered and I can work at a faster pace and watch 720p YouTube videos. The Viao struggled with 320p :(
    The E-book runs Android 4.0.3 and Windows 7. I'm surprised at just how well Windows 7 runs on it. Boots really fast and runs just like a desk top. I was expecting a slow boot with sluggish performance.

    Also picked up a few Game Boy games and Dead Rising 2 for the 360. It's the US version so it was selling pretty cheap due to it being in English.

    Final Fight 2 and Operation Logic Bomb to give the game it's stupid English title. I mean, What the hell is a Logic Bomb??

    Oh, and a few more GameBoy titles including Battle Arena Tohshinden and World Heroes Jet.

    Finally received my new laptop in the mail.
    I will never buy anything other than a Thinkpad in the future. There is an incredibly large number of features they don't really mention that are extremely useful.

    Since my HD2 was becoming super laggy and crashing on me like crazy, I decided to get a new phone. I got a Dapeng i9977, 2 out of 4 chinese phones I've owned have been crap, but this, it's great!

    Here's the specs:

    The battery is so good, best out of all phones I've owned apart from nokias from high school. It's about 12hrs+ :)

    Not bad for a cheap phone. It's quite like my car's Android tablet in specs. As long as you're not wanting to run heavy 3D games or some HD video editing or such the phone should serve you well. My car's tablet is used for navigation and as a audio / video system.

    Yesterday I received my Samsung 840 Pro 128 GB SSD :D
    I had to go to the International Post Office/Customs Office, and I was lucky that they didn't charge me a cent :p
    Now I have to find me some time to install it...

    God I love thinkpads....especially the older ones...

    I put a Kingston HyperX 120gb in my modded thinkpad not too long ago... You'll be pretty amazed at how it can turn even an old machine into a nice little quick'n'speedy machine

    Quoted for truth, a vertex plus SSD gave two more useable years to my old laptop! The Samsung 840 pro is a real beast btw, kinda expensive (1$/GB) but faster than a Delorean. Just bought a 256GB one for my asus zenbook and it's wonderful.
