leftybassman392 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) Not a present as such (for reasons that will become obvious), but I got a new nVidia graphics processor in attempt to fix a BSOD issue with my gaming computer. Turns out the old GPU wasn't at fault after all (no, honestly... ) and will be available at a thread near you in due course, so I guess that will have to go down as my 'Christmas' spend for this year... What's worse, the problem hasn't entirely gone away even now despite significant biting of bullets/going against better judgement/swallowing of pride/etc. and installing Win10 - not to mention extended (and ongoing) testing and troubleshooting the like of which I haven't done in years.

SH73 Posted December 25, 2016 Author Share Posted December 25, 2016 [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1482510019' post='3201216'] I've got welding tools from the wife for Christmas but I've a few more things in my watch list including a big bottle of gas which can't be posted so I might see if I can collect it while I'm off. We had a new car this year so that has wiped us out, jam sandwiches for Christmas at our house [/quote] Laughing gas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1482491188' post='3200972'] Just ordered an Ashdown RM-500. If it works out ok I`ll probably defect from Aguilar to Ashdown as the sound seems to have a bit more oomph to it. [/quote] Well I like the RM, not used in a band practice yet but having used Ashdown gear before I know I`ll like it. So bagged myself an ABM 600 Evo IV today - new, for £499, a saving of £150 from the rrp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivansc Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I seem to have accidentally bought a Mac Mini server! How on earth did that happen? Also I noticed today in my email that some chap is sending me a copy of logic Pro 9 ! Astounding - just what I wanted! Maybe there IS a Santa after all. Anyway - Happy Xmas and prosperous new year to you all down here in the low country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
