I just bought my retirement stocks for the year (roth IRA, small $ amounts) with about 60/40 Goog/Cat. Not horribly well researched.
I am still scanning lcd tvs and the prices are plummeting. I was thinking of what to do with my 32" tv when I upgrade, and realized while it might be silly there is nothing keeping me from putting it on my work desk as a regular monitor (it's hooked up to a computer vga right now as the living room tv). New tv or not - I just bought steam's ultimate DOOM and DOOM II (I hated both doom 3 & 4). It occurs that there is nothing to keep me from logging into steam from my living room tv, putting the rolling desk/computer stand directly in front of the tv, blasting the sound through the surround sound and subwoofer, and playing DOOM old-school in the dark to pacify my old 17-19 year old self. I can practically hear the sound of bodily fluids meeting tissue paper as we speak...
