What was the last thing you bought?

[ScorLibran]

Asus Xonar DX PCIe 7.1 Sound Card

Zalman 9500A 92mm Pure Copper CPU Cooler

And a box of assorted screws and standoffs because stupid case manufacturers, even very good stupid case manufacturers like Antec, NEVER give you nine mainboard standoffs AND nine mainboard mounting screws. I need to contact them to inform them that this is the minimum number of standoffs and screws it takes to properly mount an ATX mainboard into a PC chassis. It's always some stupid, incomplete combination like eight standoffs and ten screws or nine standoffs and four screws. After some twenty machines I've already used up my surplus. Perhaps they don't have anyone packaging their product accessories who has any experience in assembling personal computers. I can train them. I've assembled a personal computer before. I'll even discount my training fee. It'll be a short class, after all.

Welcome, class. Repeat after me: "NINE SCREWS AND NINE STANDOFFS!" Thank you for attending. Have a great day.

Huh, my Solo came with way more than nine.

(actually it came with a big bag of screws, no idea where one's supposed to use them all (sound of computer falling apart) oh, there)

Good read. I just finished reading it last night. The ending kind of pissed me off, though.

Can you send me your extras?

(Actually, I received the box of screws/standoffs/etc. that I ordered, and it'll give me a good supply for probably the rest of the year, assuming I'll be needing no more than one or two pieces out of it for each build.)

I bought some glue so I could repair my speaker.

I just recently purchased and am almost finished consuming a Chicken BLT Salad from Wendy's as well as a Strawberry Frostie Shake.

mmMMmm good stuff.

Finally got around to taking a couple pictures and uploading them... Not technically the last thing I bought, but I recently purchased a set of BFGoodrich Radial T/As for my new truck, so I figured I'd post a picture. I also painted the wheels with the Dupli-Color paint that I bought a while back. Looks way better, I think.

Here's a picture of my truck before. img_4515.jpg

Here's my truck right after I pulled out of the carwash after I painted the wheels. img_5029.jpg

Here's a night-time shot (I'll try to take a better one later). img_5036.jpg


At any rate, I love the tires. They were definitely a good purchase. They ride better than the stock tires, they give much better traction for acceleration/handling/braking, and they look great. The Dupli-Color paint that I bought to coat the wheels with was a great buy, too.

Very nice, Sarge.

Here's the last thing I bought:

I bought a CAT5 ethernet cable and a wired headset for my PS3 so I could play over the internet...
