Weekend Open Forum: What's on your Christmas wish list?

By

On November 9, 2012, 6:30 PM

The holiday season is fast approaching and chances are some of you are already scrambling to find the perfect gift for that special person in your life -- including yourselves, of course. As usual, we’ll have our annual holiday gift guide ready in the next few days to ease the process, but in the meantime how about we pick your collective brain for some ideas we might be overlooking?

This week we’d like to hear about what’s on your personal Christmas wish list -- whether that’s an upgrade for your trustworthy desktop, a brand new tablet, or any other of today's coolest gadgets and electronics. If expensive gift giving is not on your agenda we’d still love to know about any special plans you have for the festivities.

I can’t say I have set my mind on a particular item but perhaps I'll get an audio receiver or a Boxee-like media streamer for the new place I just moved into.

  1. Pay off the credid card.... payed off the car and paid off the house.. now time to pay off the credit card.. 5 months and that will be paid off.. then I will just be Bill Free, other than Utilities and and the Bar Tab..

    Making my shopping list for Next Year...

  2. I want to buy myself a new laptop this holiday season. Been looking long and hard at a lenovo y580. Too bad the deal I wanted showed up but was sold out in a few hours before I ever saw it. It was $800 for a win 7 clearance y580 with ivy bridge I7, 1080P, 8gb ram, 660m 2 gb graphics, and an msata mssd. I cried.

  3. Me? very simple, but impossible..

    I hope Apple stop suing Samsung or other company

  4. An ipad3.Or any windows 8 tablet that can impress me,to change my mind.

    Lower your standards, and you will be greatly impressed.

  5. A Nexus 10... maybe. A tablet running Jelly Bean 4.2 has me excited.

  6. Maybe a Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013.

    +1

  7. I'd like a new W7 Home Premium laptop is all.

  8. Spend more time with family and friends

  9. I plan to buy a Nexus 7 and an Xbox 360 + Kinect at the end of this month.

  10. 2013 Carrera 4S. That's probably not going to happen, so I'd be happy to settle for a 2TB external drive to store my videos on.

  11. Hard cash, so I can get whatever I want

  12. I'd like my medical bills paid for. I was shot recently in the chest by a gunman and don't have any insurance. Besides that I'd take all the parts for me to assemble a new computer.

    Am sorry but I find the first part of your comment to be funny. I don't want to give the impression that am not sympathetic regarding your circumstances but That's what those Movie goers that were shot at during the Batman opening In Aurora,Colo are facing !

    It's sad that we think and believe that that so-called INSURANCE, protects us from the stupidity of others.

    Get well and wish you a Merry Christmas !

  13. Santa abandoned me years ago xD

    Sadly, It seems Obama is now the New Santa Claus for many except me !

    I still think he's much like the Pied Piper or Yosemite Sam.

  14. To wake up from this nightmare of 4 more years of Obama...

    Hopefully, I'll DIE before he completes his 2nd term.

  15. A Psycho Gamer Ultimate PC - Most powerful commercial PC in the world at £14,000

  16. College Tuition Money...

  17. A 2tb USB 3.0 HDD and a Samsung Galaxy 5.0

  18. Hopefully, I'll DIE before he completes his 2nd term.

    Just move to canada or australia :p

    Seems like that's all the rage in these modern times

  19. I'd be happy with a gamestop gift card. I'm really eyeing an iphone 5 to ichat with my gf, cause talking to her is a gift everyday

  20. Plextor PX-256M5S 256GB SSD

    Palit GeForce GTX 660 Ti JETSTREAM Edition Video Card

    Other than that, nothing else...

  21. A Pentax K-30 dslr!

  22. Be able to purchase Google Nexus 4 "AT" $299 or $349 plus taxes

    Nexus 7 maybe as I've already had BlackBerry Playbook tablet which I'm more than happy with it.

    Consider getting an Acer Liquid Glow out of curiosity, after all the praising from reviewers everywhere. Not that I need another smartphone though.

  23. Hopefully, I'll DIE before he completes his 2nd term.

    You do know we pay a lot more tax and the wait for our "free" healthcare is 6 - 9 hours for an emergency and 9 - 12 months for surgery.

    Yeah, I recently heard about the extra tax, but maybe they don't they care about that if Obama is such a nightmare for them :P

  25. An android tablet, such as the archos gamepad
