I also got a very cool Star Wars hood sweatshirt that has all of the characters on it .. black silk-screened a dark brown / orange color fabic.. pretty cool.. I'll have to take a picture of it.. also a Yoda t-shirt from the same artist.
I did not get Windows 7.. which was a surprise seeing how one of my in-laws was going to buy it for me.. but whatever.. I'm very happy just to have some downtime with my family.
Merry Christmas. to everyone !

You can adjust the back position. The mesh lets you kinda sink in to it a bit, feels softer than my old chair. Only been in it for maybe an hour at a time so far but its been very comfortable. I put the back in the forward position for doing stuff on the pc like photo editing and then adjust it back more for watching TV.loop2kil wrote:what benefits do you get from the mesh back? Is it comfortable after a few hours?
Got myself a Sony brava s 40" tv with new entertainment cabinet. Wife got me that new mastercraft dual head cordless drill. Got some iTunes money, clothes. Got the girls a 10 gal fish tank with four gold fish.
