    So I take the bus from my girlfriends house over to the Air Force Recruiter, because I have an appointment at 3 oclock. Not so bad, except it's 80 degrees out and I have my 20" laptop in my bag.

    Afterwards, I swing by the Goodwill in the same parking lot. Low and behold, a sight...for 7.99. This behemoth weighs probably 10 pounds...

    I say fuck it, and I purchase the monster.

    Once I walk out the doors, the bus passes. Dammit. The next one won't be here for another 30 minutes.

    It'll take me 30 minutes to walk home.

    I thought about it and said fuck it, I'll hoof it.

    45 minutes later, I have the fruits of my labor back in my home.

    A mother fucking Phillips CD-i.

    ...good thing the Pioneer Laserdisc player that was there had a LD Stuck in it or I'd have carried that home too.

    Can't fault the price. If only the same could be said for the selection of games available for it...

    Thinking of tracking down the Zelda/Mario titles?

    maybe. this thing is kinda finky with the tray and reading though. took a few tries to get it to read a CD, and wouldn't play the first track - it'd skip the first part. But like, it's a brand new cd.
