@Techy111 good one man. Yeh c'mon spill thee beans Rune. £1000 bux on yourself how much on the missus? And to put things in perspective for you. I bought the Microsoft Laptop 2 for just under a £1000 for my missus this year and took her to dinner at The Shard.

Except there's another layer with more parts than the first!

I'm still wondering what the heck Valve has in store for the passthrough/AR cameras. They still aren't activated, officially anyway.

In my case, I gave her nothing. We have split finances for personal spending. She spends hers how she wants and I spend mine.

I'm actually kind of in the doghouse for selling it though as she loved it. I told her to use her own money to buy one as I couldn't pass up the profit.  :D

It's a hand-woven Persian carpet, but yeah it's a matter of taste, guess I've gotten used to it ;) You'd love the Hulk-green couch with Galactus-colored cushions too, lol. 

The wife just got her cruise - price more than 5 Indices (Index plural = Indices according to Gabe) for 8 days, must be enough. Also means that the Index only costs 1½ days at sea, lol. BTW, the ship is the 6th largest cruise ship ever built (nearly 6,000 passenger as the max) - and it has the largest screen ever made for a ship - 5200 sq feet dome LED - and they used CV1 to design it:

Yup, but it was her idea - "happy wife, happy life"  ;) Also building a new raised brick terrace for the house, her idea too, soon I'll need more than the Index!
