Woo! Praise it!
I love my 360.
i must say tho, you got some balls buyin one now with all the christmas price drops rumors going crazy. :)
i'd like one, but it all depends on how good NHL 07 turns out right now.

That smilie is getting drunk.
It's just that, the only time I've gotten a game system at no expense was when my grandfather bought my family (5 kids) a Genesis as a bulk present, when I got a $50 Sega Saturn in 1999, and when I pulled my resources of Birthday and Christmas together to reduce the price of a PS2. That's right... reduce.

Well, to put it simple: Work does weekly (sometimes daily) contests. If I hit certain goals, I get X amount in whats called Premiere Choice Awards (google it to see what I mean). Redeem them for certain stores. Around here, I have been redeeming for Nebraska Furniture Mart certificates recently. Got a $425 recliner that works well using some of my previous winnings. Recently got enough again to get a 360 and some of the older games until I get more. So..yeah...in a nutshell I guess thats how I am not spending my own money on it. Its what work gives me :p
in a nutshell tho, thats how you technically are. its kinda like getting a gift card, doesnt feel like your spending money, but you kinda are.
its just not hard earned money :p

Yeah, its just not my dime I'm spending. Its the company's dime basically so I don't consider it my own money :p

Inbound sales for local phone company
Yes..I hate doing sales but the benefits of sales is good enough to stay until I can settle into a job that has a better career goal for me.

well i could say i dont spend any of my money either, i spend the money my work gives me every week. lol :p :D
i guess money is only 'yours' if you make it youself. :sneaky:

I hope I'm not confusing this =/ I still get a regular paycheck. Its the "side incentives" that I get that are above and beyond the normal paycheck. Hence why I consider it that I'm not spending my own money because my regular paycheck is real money ;)
oh i understand completely. and i know fully it doesnt feel like yoru spending your own money, because i feel the same way. im just giving you a hard time about it.
im just saying, technically, its still 'money' given to you from your job. you could buy things you need, or things you want with it. but its still on some level spending your money. lol

If I buy XP Professional to run on my Mini under Bootcamp, will it recognize and take advantage of the dual processors?

Yep!
And I'm pleased to announce that your smart alec gauges are running at full power!
Excellent!
however im sorry to say, that wont recognize and take advantage of the duel processors because you built a time machine instead of a computer.
BUT! there is a bright side, you can now go back in time and fix this error in judgement before it occured. :D
