Getting The Most Out Of Your Electronics Budget
ByWith so numerous high definition-enabled products out there right now, how do you know which ones you really want to have? From video games to televisions to recorders and more, it seems like everything it being slowly brought over into high definition format, but depending on what kind of lifestyle you have, you may only benefit from purchasing certain items. What do I mean? Well, let me vindicate.
If you watch a lot of tv and movies at home (for instance, if you have a game room), then getting an HD TV would be a swell investment for you. But, if you do all of your television watching in a certain area of the refuge, it may be more cost effective to only get an HD TV for that particular room and leave the other rooms in the house alone.
It depends on how much of a TV enthusiast you are. Getting one for the main area of the house and leaving the rest of the household to buy their own would probably be the unexcelled answer to a house full of people who all want their own HD TV.
If you like to follow a lot of flicks, you’ll have to get a DVD player that will play HD DVDs, because normal DVD players do not support performing this new formatting. This is common meaning to numerous technophiles and hopefully to you, as well, but you will also have to have an HD TV to catch the HD movies on, since a normal television will not support the playback of these DVDs, either.
The identical goes for playing HD video games, such as on Xbox or Sony Playstation 3. If you acquire friends over to play games oftentimes or if you just like performing games exclusive, an HD TV could be good. If you like having friends over to play multiplayer games (such as with 3 or 4 players), a big screen HD TV could be great, too, but pricy.
If you are the household member that takes all of the videos every year during the holidays, you could invest in an HD camcorder to get the finest qualify videos that you can get.
The point is, no matter what electronic item you acquire that supports high definition formatting, you want to make sure you will be able to get a good amount of use out of it, especially since these components are on the costly side right now. The price will surely come down on all of these items, but it will take time. If you have to acquire an HD compliant component now and you’re on a budget, determine carefully.

Girls, what is a good gift to get your boyfriend of 2 years?
He is 26 y/o.
He already has: ipod, x360, wii, gps, laptop, phone etc
He likes: his games, florida football, clothes (which i cannot get him because he is sooo picky) and expensive electronics.
his birthday is in 2 weeks and i have no clue what to get him.
Please be creative he is extremely picky. He likes most anything expensive. My budget is appx $500.
thanks guys you have some really good ideas though. However i think giftcards are a bit impersonal :/

you could do something fun like tickets to a game
do something personal though, not just what you would buy your boyfriend of a week in middle school.
hope it goes well

get him something particular to his personality, and maybe something to do with an inside joke of yours? i cant help you with the big stuff, but my bf has a hobby of throwing knives, which kind of bugs me, and i let him know, so i gave him a plastic knife, along with other things

Do something with him. Plan a sleepover at small hotel and don’t let him leave the room. Go camping. Go to a football game. Whatever he’s into.

Mix it up! Get him florida football hats, t shirts, etc etc. Get him a gift card to his favorite clothing store(s). Maybe get him some attachments for his GPS, itunes giftcard, ummm..that’s all I can think of. If he wears fitted hats, find out what size he wears and you can get em off the internet for an average of $30 per hat. Your budget is pretty large so you have lots of options!!

i got my bf some nice cuff links from Tiffany and Co, but only because I had made a lot of money. Research their website, or if you go to the department stores, they have some in the men’s area.
You can always get a gift card at gameStop or something? Mine also likes being pampered with a couple’s massage, tickets to a football/baseball game, sometimes I just wander around the mall to a gadget store for ideas (Sharper Image, Brookstone?).
Hope that helps.

if he’s classy, get him a watch. if he’s punky, get him a 2 player game for the wii. If you want something sporty, get a football and have him play catch with you then take your man to dinner and a movie. you could go to some kind of concert. i don’t know. i would go with a watch IF he doesn’t lose the dang thing. keep back ups I guess.
You could get cologne that smells good. put it on him and then when he asks if you personally like the smell, answer him by jumping his bones. 
if you know what i mean.

Honestly… I gave my hun the night of his life… Then again if that isn’t your thing, I also gave him a pair of tickets to so LP (Linkin Park) in concert… Is most fav band ever…
Give him both… A great night, that he wants, and something sweet, like tickets to his fav band, or sports team.
Make him a card too!

Ok, a gift card is always good, but not special or anything.
the best thing you can do is give him a memory and something usefull.
My suggestions:
Something that has to do with an inside joke,
Gift card for a game store, futurshop, or victorias secret
A new camera is a good idea.
A puppy maybe.
Or get him something (gift card/camera or something) and a kama sutra book with a sexy message inside like:
"your choice tonight"
And let him expirement with you all night.
Or sexy lingerie, you can surprise him by waiting on his beg with a big red bow on you.
Be creative, You’ve been dateing for two years so you should know him pretty well.
Big tip: ask his friends.
