I use eCommerce websites to both look for useful gifts to give and get ideas for things maybe not on their list (I’m a big crocheter, so if they ask for a certain color coat, I might make them a coordinating scarf to go with it). We’ve worked hard at putting together this site so it is useful for all types of gift giving. I hope you check it out! I love giving unique gifts.

Or better yet, upgrade to a 60" Sony SXRD XBR. Yeah, it's not as chic as a flat screen, but it provides better picture for less money. The Sharp Aquos LCD screens seem to be decent though if you really want flat...and they do a 1080 screen. Now is totally not the time to be buying a 720 screen. Hey Chris,

I have a feeling that it’s going to be my “midlife crisis” acquisition (though I’m hoping midlife won’t hit me for another thirty years). I didn’t really grow up inside arcades, but arcades certainly grew up with and around me. I still remember walking into Happy Joe’s pizza parlour and begging Dad to let us play a few rounds of Donkey Kong.
