Ordered a bunch of stuff to build a home server, as my 2TB NAS is long past stuffed full now. So, by mid week it'll be replaced by a nice little 4.5TB box o' goodness.

Good stuff! I picked up two 2TB drives from newegg to upgrade my home server. Newegg was tempting me too much with their sale.

I initially wanted to go with 2TB'ers. But 1.5's from Amazon for $80 were just too hot to pass up. I ended up with a nice big case for next to nothing, so data density became less of a issue.

Shelter 501 MkII.

Oh dear oh dear etc. etc.

Picked up a 2 TB external drive from Dell.com for $150 to replace my almost full 1 TB drive.

Guzzi, I hope I can hold out 7 more days. I have the order page open in a tab. So far, I've been able to resist.

Jim, funny stuff.

Dinny, listen to Jim.

Stretch, nice cart. I have a $1500 credit with Oz (Let There Be Sound). He is a Shelter dealer and was considering picking up a 7000 or 9000, depending on the deal he gives me, which should be a good one.

Al, nice lens. I look forward to the pics of the meet.

My wife bought me a Tumi briefcase in the nylon, not leather. Not sure if I am going to move up to the leather. First, it's about $250 more, not a huge problem. Second, one of my law partners has one and hasn't used it for a couple of years as he found it to be heavy, especially with a computer. I have the computer and a handgun, so it would be even more weight. Al, understanding you don't have a gun, what do you think about the weight issue? Thanks.

Classe CP-50 off the 'gon. I hope it makes my speakers sing!

Oh dear indeed. All you need now is a new TT.

I am so tempted to order a pair. I am trying to hold out until the meet and try Colin's.

Mine should be here by next Friday (12/4), even if I do not make it to the meet you can borrow them afterwards.

I picked up an 80gb zune off of walmart.com for 99 bucks. Not bad but not that great either. I just didn't want to spend 250 on another ipod that I'll break in under a year.

Keep the one Gail bought you, it's ballistic nylon after all! I don't think their leather is all that great, it is heavy, and the nylon could hold a bazooka.

I know, I know. But I like the 1000 and I wanted to compare the 1100. And I'm thinking about modding one of them and I'm crazy.

You could always move the handgun to inside the waistband, or on the ankle, or in a pocket. I carry any of those ways depending on my mood or how I'm dressed. I have a nice Milt Sparks VersaMax II that allows tucking in a shirt over the holster/pistol so something like that is an option.

Nice choice on the gun, and it sounds like someone owns a Ramset/Remington concrete nailer? I love that toy!

Very nice looking unit, I am thinking of replacing my older Monster 3500MkII unit and this would work out fine. The lowest price I found was about $615 at: PROVANTAGE: APC S10BLK APC AV Black 1KVA S Type Power Conditioner with Battery Backup 120V

Have you seen it elsewhere for less? Thanks.

I got mine through Vann's, the one mr. veloaudio pointed to above.

Just picked up 8 Riedel Vinum Bordeaux/Cab wine glasses from BB&B - just in time for Thanksgiving

Riedel Vinum 21 1/2-Ounce Cabernet/Bordeaux

Any suggestions for good beer/ale glasses?

I like standard pint glasses for most beer and tulip shaped glasses for more complex beers. Belgian beers often have specific glasses for each variety, but I think even brandy glasses serve the same purpose
