My husband is fond of techie stuff. A lot of times, he uses the internet to buy those gadgets that he really likes to have. The first time he availed it online, he bought a second-hand laptop to replace the brand new one that was accidentally slammed between the car seat and the door, cracking just the tiny bit of glass at the edge of the newly bought laptop. Several hours later, the LCD crushed and that compelled him to buy a replacement, thus the second-hand.
The second time he bought a laptop was a gift for me. This laptop is brand new (don’t you just love hubby?) with the Sony VAIO brand which he bought at a discounted price (around $600). Then as a price for himself, he bought this Sony digicam that really shoots even with speed (the one that is usually used for sports images). Funny but he seldom uses that, saying it is reserved for special occasions, with that, he bought another one, this time a so-so version for his daily (since he have to get images of those sites they visit and maintain). Another time, he bid (for the fun of it) some batteries for our digicams and cellphones.
Sigh, come to think of it, he does buy really techie stuff and sometimes he searches the net just for that. I think it’s time to recommend top10 stuff to make it easier for him in his desires and notwithstanding the uses of reviews as his reference (just the other day he asked me what kind of cell phone is the latest craze right now). Sooo techie.
