Recent arrivals:
Nendoroid More: Panzer IV Ausf. D - Goes quite nicely with the Miho Nendoroid I bought a while back. I was surprised to find the tank also has a pull-back motor! Nendoroid Sinon - bought from the Crunchyroll Store. This one took its time to get here... Nendoroid Solid Snake - bought this one from local store Anime at Abbotsford, alongside the Panzer IV. The inclusion of a cardboard box prop was a nice touch. Also recently bought an LG Nexus 5 (32GB White), mainly for testing purposes.

Since I had CDJapan points I needed to use before March, I decided to get this...
This is apparently the sequel/prequel of Monster Monpiece titled Moero Chronicle, which is a dungeon crawling JRPG for the Vita. I happened to find a limited edition left it stock, so I decided to get it. Not sure when I will start since I haven't completed Monster Monpiece (although I'm very close to finishing). Also, I got an ATI Radeon 7000 PCI Graphics card for my old PowerMac G3, which I use primarily for retro gaming (Simcity 2000, Oregon Trail, The Sims, etc) for 14 dollars. I ended flashing it to make it work with the Mac and after I installed the drivers, it worked. Although it's not the fastest graphics card for a PCI Graphics Powermac, at least it's faster than a ATI Rage 128 GL and it works in Mac OS 9. At least it gives me Quartz Extreme acceleration in Mac OS X Tiger after installing a hack to enable it. The end result:

Finally jumped on the SSD bandwagon and got myself a Samsung 850 Pro 128GB (MZ-7KE128) to make my Windows snappier. Damn, these things are much, MUCH smaller than I thought. I'll have to buy a dock to keep this little baby (the 840 apparently has firmware issues causing performance drops after a while, whereas the 850 Pro is faster and touted to have even more exceptional lifespan) in place.

SSDs are such great upgrades that I can't recommend them enough. Even if people just get a small 80gb drive to use as the OS drive next to their old spinning HDD it's already a massive improvement. People just can't comprehend how much faster these things are until they try them out themselves. It takes seconds to boot the OS. My cellphone takes about 10 times longer to boot

bought...i guess this is also purchase in a way:
had the guy applied some tinting service for my car. total of 5 windows in the rear. (those little windows count as one). there were four options for light, dark, darker and darkest; i choose number 3 since i think number 4 was way to dark for my silver car. = $100, i also got a free window cleaner+cloth & a car freshener for being a customer there. ^ ^ comments: hopefully these will last a long time. if not, i'll try going to my car dealer next time and have them apply the tinting instead. car dealer is much more expensive but better quality. (according to my co-worker) anyways, he did a good job in placing the tinting for my windows...just hoping it'll last at least 5 years or more before bubbling or falling off.

Btw good move on not cloning the drive. I tried doing it the first time and it took me a couple of days until I had to format the drive. Stuff like optimum block sizes are different between a spinning hard drive and a solid state one and to top it off Windows doesn't handle the switch particularly well. My Windows 7 at the time didn't notice that it was running on an SSD and had defrag operations scheduled (which is something you absolutely, positively, don't want to do on a SSD )

Finally pulled the trigger and got a new 3DS (Japanese version) and I was able to add eShop credit without any problems, meaning I don't have to import 3DS games since I can probably download most of them without worrying about shipping costs.
