X-Surf arrived this morning, cant wait to get my A4000 connected!!
The USB ports are a first for me on the Amiga, just need to wait till Jens gets round to completing the USB add-on but they do look cool

Got a few C64 Assembly and machine language books plus a 68-pin SCSI cable from Exilent today.
I also went and bought an XBox 360 Slim 250GB bundled with Angry Birds.

Received yesterday very dirty but probably working AT PSU 200Watt for my 386SX/33 MHz... Now it's drying and maybe i'll check it today.
I wanted to preorder that console, but can't really justify it as I already have a WiiU :'(Originally Posted by SkydivinGirl
Don't have it yet, but I've pre-ordered the Zelda Wii-U Special Edition console. It arrives September 20 and comes with a download code for the Zelda WindWaker HD game. About the only thing I really wish was that it came with the actual disk instead of a download code.

I have preordered the game with the gannondorf statue though

Yeah, I'm really happy I waited to pick one up. Between the price cut and the fact that I love Zelda games and a Zelda themed console, I decided it was the right time. Still, I would love to get the disc version of the game.I wanted to preorder that console, but can't really justify it as I already have a WiiU :'(

I'm currently playing through Skyward Sword for the first time! It's really fun going through a Zelda world that I haven't seen yet. For the most part, the motion controls work well, but I would still rather just press a button. I've also pre-ordered the new 3DS Zelda.

*EDIT* I also love that you can skydive in Skyward Sword! I even had to do a double take the first time I saw a skydiving formation go flying past me.

Yamaha DX7
I've had a module version of this synth (the TX7) for a while, because I love the sound of Yamaha FM - but I just never use it, because there's no on-board editing facilities, and setting up a MIDI connection from a master keyboard to a module is just so much less immediate and hands-on than sitting down with one of my keyboard synths. So I've been keeping an eye out, and one turned up on Craigslist for a pretty good price (I got the keyboard, a soft case, a stand, both factory ROM cartridges, and the switch and swell pedals for a good deal less than I've seen bare units go for elsewhere!) There's minor cosmetic damage and it was dustier'n hell, but it's otherwise in good shape, and it works and sounds greatWhat a classic!

Hmm, I pre ordered 2 of them also at Vesalia.
Haven't even received payment instructions for them, so I'll give them another email.

@commodorejohn: A legendary synth nevertheless! You'd be quite busy testing various editor-librarians for it too. I think there was one Amiga-based also. (or a few):

Would love a DX-7, they're not overly expensive either. Roland D-50 is another classic on the shopping list... again not too pricey and great synth
I'm just wondering how big johns house is
