For me, I always think 'this will be my last laptop or desktop'.... but it's never enough... have to keep "updating" my current main laptop or desktop...

Graphics Card....the power seemed never enough to handle everything maxed out.... but looking at the current state of games (mostly sequels of sequels ... *cough* Call of Duty *cough* or this 3 or that 4) .. that want is also fading...

Nostalgia Dos/Win3.x/Win95 gaming and hardware... I can never have enough of them... though I have stopped collecting now, booting the classic machines is as fresh and wonderful as ever.

Once you have that and a Guild navigator, space and time are yours to be conquered.

Until Muad'Dib comes and breaks all that space-time-spice traveling business and you are back to needing sound cards.
