    Is anybody else making a list of houses to rob or is it just me?

    It's OK, OP, we used to have a cleaner too, but that was because both my parents used to drive nearly 70 miles a day to and from work and it just made it easier when they didn't come home to a messy house.

    1. Laptop
    2. Multi-tool pocket knife thing
    3. Mobile phone
    4. Sewing machine
    5. The mighty electrical kettle. I'd be lost without it.

    Thought this would be a fun idea for a thread, gives those of us who aren't going out tonight something interesting to mull over for a few minutes anyway :)

    My top five gadgets are:

    1. My Macbook Pro. I needed this for uni as I'm doing music in NUIM, but I have to say I just love everything about it, from its ease of use to its i5 processor speed :D

    2. My iPhone 4S. Again, I just love this. I've been addicted to iPhones since the 3GS :pac: I think the best thing about this updated version is the web browser speed.

    3. My iPod touch. Though I gave this to my brother (because he accused me of losing his) though I still enjoy using it every now and again, even just to see what apps my brother is into nowadays :P

    4. I'd have to say my xbox 360. It's great for when I've nothing else to do, and the kinect we're apparently getting for christmas can only sweeten the deal :cool:

    5. Retro time! My gameboy colour is still in great nick, so I enjoy having a walk around kanto in the pokemon universe every now and again!



    So, AH, what are your five favourite gadgets? :)


    1 Laptop - for all things PC related.
    2 Kindle - a great ebook reader, it's class.
    3 Sky + - great for pausing and recording TV, a Godsend
    4 Portable media player - for entertainment on those long train journeys.
    5 Nokia E71 - great phone handy for calls, emails etc.

    5. iPhone 4 - so I can check email/restart servers from the pub and play games and make phone calls
    4. MacBook - so everyone knows I'm better than them
    3. Modified Gaggia classic and commercial grinder - life's too short to drink crap coffee
    2. Modified Mac Mini - couch surfing, media playing box of joy
    1. My wife - for making babies and practicing making babies and about a million other things

    I only have one favourite gadget, the iKnob. It's attached to my laptop and makes an alarm noise when it comes across a certain type of post. It's going mental at the moment.

    I'm surprised you haven't got a weapon of mass destruction on that list, i.e. a club.:confused:
