Christmas list.

Clearing out the dead soldiers at work and I have my eye on a Dell XT2 w/ eSATA that I may make into a NAS. It's got a dead 1.8" hdd, I will probably take it out and just install Linux to a USB stick. Looking at a 4 drive eSATA / USB3 enclosure to connect to it, then I can get some drives out of my desktop that are just dumb storage.

How would the Neatdesk differ (other than pricing)? -

How would the Neatdesk differ (other than pricing)?Neatdesk is unique not as hardware, but their software is pretty spectacular in what it can do. I haven't really learned anything about it in a couple years now but given that it's been over a year and a half since I've looked at them at all, I can only imagine they've gotten better.

something that will just do my expense reports from receipts and deal with the business cards would be a HUGE time saver for me!

Yup. That's pretty much what it does. It just does it very well.

I use wave so I have that already, it just a pain as I have to do each receipt one at a time. With the neat desk I can put a whole stack in at a time, cause let's face it they stack up before you get to them, it will scan all of them different sized pages and small receipts and business card sized things. And will categorize them all for you correctly. It is awesome.

Budget dictated that @NetworkNerd and myself weren't buying each other anything for Christmas this year, but I had been wanting a GoPro pretty badly for a while. As luck would have it, I won one a few weeks ago. Sweet. Then necessity dictated that we had to replace our garage door due to some damage, so I guess we got a new garage door for Christmas.
I did upgrade my phone last night to an iPhone 6+ as well...ok, so maybe I got a garage door and a new phone already. Never mind.

So my wife told me last night to email her a Christmas list. So I did and I was just thinking what other people are looking at getting other than one million dollars.
http://www.nitroplanes.com/95a355-800-tempest-rtf-24g.html I like RC planes

Lumosity for 1 year
SSD for my laptop http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820721107
I know my list is small but some years its only like 1 or 2 things.
So whats on your list?
There are much better SSDs than that one. Get the Samsung SSDs. Even if you don't get the Pro, I've seen a major performance improvement in my Samsung over my Kingston, which was that exact drive.
Someone I know has a Samsung 850 Pro and loves it.
I'm getting a SanDisk Extreme Pro 240GB for a sweet deal in the next few weeks.Both the Samsung 850 Pro and SanDisk Extreme Pro series drives have 10 year warranties.

I usually ask for movies or music as I don't normally get new ones during the year.
This year I'm looking for $$ to fund my gaming rig upgrade. -
There is nothing I want at the moment, so I probably won't get anything other than a bottle of whisky from my mom which is something of a tradition.

/threadjackNot a bad option either. The Kingston are decent, but that's what they sell at Staples, if that tells you anything.

We have a GoPro Hero4 Black on our list.

I have the Hero4 Silver. For what I'm going to do with it, that's all the GoPro I need. I'm thrilled with it thus far.
