Got my VE-1 yesturday. Got the shipping notice on the 25th. Took 10 days by SAL which included 4 weekend days and 2 Holidays.

From pics alone it looks like the V2 wins.

Haven't seen this movie yet. Not high on my list either. I did get a review from two people. One of them a 17 year old girl had this to say, "I didn't like it. Started out okay but then got stupid with the people becoming these blue creatures and trying to make animal sounds"

How cool is this. I placed my order for the VE-1 on Christmas Eve and get the shipping notice on Christmas Day. Went with SAL so it will still be like another 3 weeks.

Very ugly paint job for a very pricey toy. Looks worth $20 now.

How funny I ordered a VE-1 today as well. Good prices on all the stuff but little differences from one VF-1 to another. The VE-1 is built on the VF-1 toy but different enough to look like a new different toy for my collection instead just being a repaint.

Well I just setup a new wireless network. First time doing it. Lost my Key/Password years ago and had redo it all from scratch if I wanted to move my new computer more than 3 feet away. Guess my router came with a setup CD. Where did it go? I think it was stolen by that Geek at Best Buy that set things up the first time. Read some of the router's manual. Wish it was more common nitwit friendly. I guess the setup CD is for idiots like me. Hell if I did things correctly kept most of the default settings. Was smart enough to use a WPA2 security with a huge password to prevent my neighbor from using it. Should stop the idiots but not the smart ones I guess. Just to be safe I will be using a wired connection when I conduct business. Yes I hate the "junk" sites use as well. All that stuff is neat looking but go on the wrong site and your screwed. I'm so paranoid from the viruses I got before. I'm done with random browsing. Go to some semi-legimate looking site and discover the danger hiding in the junk. I can now just look at a URL on google and know it could be bad because of the country of origin. My Internet now is limited to a long list on my favorites.

No fair I justgot a new computer. Maybe I have enough to buy 1 new Valk but this sucks.

Alright new laptop came in the mail a couple of days ago. Got a Toshiba P500. 1. Keyboard design is screwy. You can't Turn on "Caps Locks" without accidently hitting the Volume button. Wouldn't be that bad if I didn't have to hear a "BEEP" everytime I do that. 2. Windows 7 Huh? Never used Vista. I used XP before. I guess W7 is suppose to be more User Friendly and simple looking. I think I liked the XP setup more. This one is almost too simple. It is like a very short Index section of a big book that you haven't read yet. I like to skip ahead to the interesting chapters but the Index isn't detailed enough for me. Guess I need to read more. 3. Big Screen is fun right? Sometimes it is. Not all websites are intended for big screens. All this space to use but only have the screen is used. Gotta play with the settings more. 4. So I have an HD Screen. Looks great but when I try playing a Video the image is too bright. More settings I gotta play around wit those settings too.

Guess I ordered a new laptop just in time. It is dead. I can no longer wiggle the power cord to get power flowing. I'll need to take it apart and soder the socket back (if it isn't too messed up). Stuck using my PS3 now. Will take a couple of weeks for them to build my new computer.

How about the end fight it Commando? It has one of the best lines to say after you've killed some one.

I don't feel dead.

Well I ordered a new Laptop. My 2nd Toshiba. Wasn't my list at first but since it scored high on the service life report, came with what I wanted at a price that beat the other guys made it the one to get.

Am I the only who see's "ASUS" and wants to pronounce it as "ANUS"?

I hate most Movie Toy Lines. Hardly ever is enough Character Designs from the Movies to use. Instead you end up with the same characters in twenty different costumes they never wore in the movie or twenty new characters that didn't appear in it. Should one of this new characters appear in a sequel their new look in the movie will invalidate the earlier Movie figure. Plus the entire Pursuit of Cobra line will be invalidated by the next movie.

Blame me for that. His Original Title/Subtitle was one of those "I want you to Read My Topic but if I tell you what's it about you wont so I'll just be vague" ones. The kind we have a rule against. Trying to be nice I looked for a couple of buzz words in his first post. Have no desire to read what he is suggesting. That's just me when I see vague topics.

HP's also looked the slickest and were priced like they were superior. Ironic that Toshiba got second place. That's what I currently have before dropping it after 4 years of use the only issue I had was some wear on the screen. I might have to put Toshiba on my list. Gonna exclude any that is rated about 20%. When it comes down to it I'll got with who ever gives me the most for the best price.

Adjusted your Topic Title since it was pretty vague. See Section I, #12.

Planning on some good Black Friday Sales for new lap top. This is my short list. Any ones on this list that I should avoid like the plague? Sony's Vaio FW Dell Studio XPS 16 Dell Inspiron 17 HP Pavilion dv8t or dv7t

Exactly. While a Ranka or Klan Klan doll dressed in a sailor uniform might sale to those who collect figures. A Sailor Suit Valkyrie isn't high on people's list.

I'm starting to hate kinokuniya online book store. This is the second time they canceled a order of mine because something is out of stock. They have the worst inventory control system. Site says they have it. Place an order wait five hour later for an email that they don't have it anymore.

How about something for a console and not a handheld.

Sold out all ready? Both Amazon and Kinokuniya list it as out of stock.

Cool Jesus Drives a Mustang!

Okay time to report another problem with my laptop. Not sure if I already reported this or not but this 'new' issue is happening more. She's Freezes. I noticed when they add more features to IE things got slower. I just used Firefox more. No problems. Well Firefox starts to freezes the on the first attempt to open. In fact a few programs don't open on the first try. Maybe this use to happen 1 out of 100 times. Now it seems like 1 out of 3. Half the time when turn the computer off I have to unplug it to go off. I think I'm just gonna have fun watching this one die. Once it does I'll just use my PS3 for the couple weeks before I to get a new one.
