Thanks guys.

 

 

 

I know what you mean. I stopped playing in school. Then in 2004 I bought a PSR-270, but because I realised I wouldn't have the time gifted it to my cousin. Now I'm hoping to catch up again :fear1:

 

 

pinkmonster :thumbsup: on the Hobbit

 

Ah, nice. My path was a Casio SA 21 --> PSS 270 (primary school) --> Yamaha PSR 640 (which I carried through my college band days) --> occasional stints on the common room piano during grad school --> Casio Privia PX-350 atfer I got a job (which I really should play more often).

After a lot of discussion on IVG and a lot of researching, I have ended up getting myself an HP Envy Touchsmart 15 laptop :)

Looks great and the touchscreen is very responsive. So far the only complaint is that the screen is not as premium as the rest of the laptop.

 

Also, got a laptop bag free with the purchase:

Sorry for the poor camera quality...

31 Disc Harry Potter Wizard's Collection

Can't wait to watch all the Behind The Scenes stuff, Featurettes, Picture-In-Picture Maximum Movie Modes, etc..Not to mention, I've never seen the extended versions of the films!

The set is HUGE!! (It weighs 11 Kg! I have no idea where I'm gonna put it! :ohnoes: )

There's artwork on all four sides of the box. Inside this outer box is the main box containing the discs.I put a copy of a normal blu-ray next to it to get a sense of the scale :

ALL THE LOGOS ARE EMBOSSED. THE BOX FEELS LIKE WOOD WITH LEATHER ON TOP OF IT..

TOP OPEN:

ABOVE SITS THE FIRST MOVIE. EACH MOVIE IS PRESENTED IN A BOOK-TYPE CASE. THE 'HOLDER' FEELS LIKE FOAM/VELVET.

ON THE OTHER SIDE IS A SIMILAR COMPARTMENT WHICH CONTAINS AN AUTHENTIC HORCRUX LOCKET REPLICA FEATURED IN MOVIES 6 & 7 :


(THE LOCKET OPENS UP AND NO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO SPEAK IN PARSELTONGUE :P )

THE OTHER 7 'BOOKS' CONTAINING THE DISCS :
TOP & BOTTOM DRAWERS CONTAIN 2 'BOOKS' EACH AND THE MIDDLE DRAWER CONTAINS 3 'BOOKS'.

THE OTHER 'BOOKS'/CASES:

THE ARTWORK ON EACH CASE IS MEANT TO RESEMBLE THE COVERS OF THE TEXTBOOKS PRESCRIBED AT HOGWARTS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE SIXTH MOVIE'S CASE ART RESEMBLES A 'POTIONS TEXTBOOK' . IN THE MOVIE, HARRY GETS HIS HANDS ON A USED POTIONS BOOK WITH SCRIBBLINGS & NOTES BY THE 'HALF BLOOD PRINCE'. I LOVE HOW THE CASE, WHICH ITSELF RESEMBLES THE POTIONS BOOK, CONTAINS SCRIBBLINGS & NOTES! THAT'S WHY EVEN THE MAIN COVER IS WRITTEN UPON! THESE ARE THE SAME NOTES THAT WERE IN THE ORIGINAL NOVEL!! :D

Nice box set (hate harry potter, but that box set is sweet!) But damn, someone delete those 2 HUGE duplicates.

 

 

This week's purchases:

 

1. 60 inch LG's flagship 2014 Plasma PB6900. 3D, great picture quality, amazing blacks, fortunately not too many windows in my hall. Decided against Samsung (pentile screen) and Panasonic ST/VT (cos it's out of production).

Intentionally focused on the frame so you can kinda see the TV itself:

2. Needed another Xbox One to go with the 47 inch LG LED TV in my bedroom. So I got a second white XBox One (my first is still packed up in mint condition).

3. The glow you see coming from the back of the 60" TV is this thing . Antec's Soundscience HDTV Bias Lighting - a 51.1 inch long LED lighting strip. Helps ease eye strain, looks cool.

4. Avatar 3D Bluray set.

5. Samsung 3D Active glasses - these are the cheapest active glasses that work great with my LG tv.

6. This came by mistake from eBay, don't know who sent this. Rotating multicolor LED lights / rave lights / disco lights, freaking people out in my office with a bunch of these. :lol:

That's all, folks.
