MSI's GeForce 8800GT OC with 512MB. Great deal through Newegg for $189.99 after rebate. It should be here today since I got it overnighted but I might not have placed the order in time last night so I might have to wait to Thursday. Now all I need to do is ditch my god awful 19" monitor for a 23".
Oh and in case anyone else wants to capitalize on this awesome deal which is good till 31/3/08:

Nope, over here McDonald's only uses plastic cups. She bought it at the store she works for.
Edit: Oh, and I wish newegg would ship stuff over here. They have great some deals there.

A remote for damn near everything in my entertainment center. 👍
To watch a DVD, it'll turn on the TV and receiver and change them to the right inputs and turn on the DVD player by pushing 1 button. As I add more components I get more complaints that it's too difficult to run. This should stop that.
Key word - should.

Getting the wife to agree that this is a "need" - priceless!
That's cool! Great price. I picked up a Harmony Remote before logitech bought Harmony out and started stamping their name on it. It's a good product. Does it still offer website based programming via USB?

Very nice! I really need to reprogram my remote and start using it again. About a year ago when I got my PS3/360/Wii my entire system's configuration changed and I never updated the remote. I actually simplified the system by using a auto sensing A/V switch for my consoles so they all go into one input on my receiver. It works pretty slick and in turn would make the Harmony programming simpler and more effective.
Is that a charging base for the remote?

Correct again.
We usually leave the remotes on the back of the couch (it's up against a wall) so it was nice to just leave the base there and never have to worry about the remote going dead. It was a great remote for the week I had it, but as Vizio's were then too new, nothing went to the right input so back to BestBuy it went. Everything else worked perfectly, just not the TV. Needless to say a $250 remote that doesn't do everything you ask it to just isn't acceptable.
Again, I'm very much hoping that Vizio's are covered now or I'm getting a mark next to my name in my wife's "He screwed up again" book.

Chew on this for a while - I haven't had cable for over 9 years and I've never had satellite.
Add to that shocker that in the last 5 years I've gone from a VCR to record TV shows to a TiVo Series 1 (now dead) to a Series 2 (single tuner SD in the bedroom) to a Series 3 (2 tuner HD in the living room) - all with only 5 channels. Now with HD it's up to a staggering 10, not including the doubled up SD and HD channels. Granted, 4 PBS stations all playing the same thing just at different times technically shouldn't count.
All that technology just to record LOST in HD. Worth it? Hell yes.

I'm dying to get it, I have a crappy 6600 right now and it just isn't good. I just checked newegg and it's been shipped and is expected to arrive at my office tomorrow before noon. I love overnight shipping.

Who would have ever thought that I would have my PS3 and home computers running off a private wireless internet connection? I was a bit intimidated at the store wondering if I really could get this thing hooked up properly. In the end it was a piece of cake. Its awesome to have a bunch of computer geeks out there to make my life easy.

I still need to buy a router for my PS3 to use internet, and some games would help too. I'll post those things when I get 'em.
