We can't believe that it's broken.. opened it up and found little bits & pieces inside... now the CD rom drive can't be used, either *sob* Gotta buy another CD rom drive soon else cannot survive, man!
Hmm... this is certainly NOT a good week to save money 
How did that happen? He must have placed it wrongly!
Oh dear! -

And yeah, the $$$ invested (not spent, ok... invested! ) is scary though!
I'll one day build a dream home with an Entertainment Room where the CD's and DVD's / VCD's are all properly and neatly categorised and displayed and where NONE of them is allowed to be loaned out! -

It just occured to me. Just for that attitute alone you'd have hordes of aussie hi-fi nuts asking you to marry them! (most wives and girlfriends frown on this stuff)Originally posted by Rhonda:I'm peachy about my collection too!

Izzit?? Izzit???Originally posted by av98m:It just occured to me. Just for that attitute alone you'd have hordes of aussie hi-fi nuts asking you to marry them! (most wives and girlfriends frown on this stuff)
I wanna marry a hi-fi nut!!! I had this huge crush on a guy in my Church group cause he was a huge audiophile! He's an ACS guy and even considered studying Audio Engineering!
Man, I had the biggest crush on him!
I ended up volunteering for a while at my church's AV team where my job was to lay the cables, set up the mikes, and then, aaaaahhh... sit next to him behind the ... whatchamacallit... big machine thing that controls all the various volumes and all that.
This girl I disliked loved to hog the mike when she was on duty for Sunday services, so I used to turn down the volume on her mike!

You know those revolving racks where you can keep your CD's and that you usually see in stores?
I wonder how that concept can be brought into the home entertainment centre! Have a few almost floor-to-ceiling revolving racks built into a panel flush against the wall with nice backlights. -
Oops, we have totally hijacked this thread! Transformed it into a "Ways to Splurge your Money" thread instead!

Didn't know revolving rack ideas were THIS effective! -
Another way of saving money... don't buy VCD's / DVD's unless you're really sure you like the movie! Go watch it in the cinemas or rent it first, then if you feel that you wanna keep the movie to watch again and again, purchase it, but only after it's been released for a while cause you might get discounts that way!
I'm soooo fed-up of buying new VCD's to watch and then realising that the movie is yucks!
