I asked for and got 2 computer books: "the complete reference: c++" and "a programmers guide to java certification". I dont know java really but its got great reviews on amazon and it can double for 2 purposes: certification if i decide, and just a learning book!! wahoo! You guys/gals get anything computer related: games, cpus, books??? hope you get some good grub to eat too.

I "got" a book on ANN''s, "Neural and Adaptive Systems", unfortunatley it didn''t arrive on schedule so I haven''t actually got it yet .

Well, I have to pay for it myself and it hasn''t arrived yet, but I''m getting "Beginning C++" by Ivor Horton.
Yeah, I''m a VB guy. *dons flameproof suit*

I got Diablo II (yep, just a little late ) and 21 CDR''s (I have made 5 coasters so far (I blame gcombust)). My birthday is coming up soon, I''ll probably get a couple of computer related books then ("only" got fantasy books this christmas).

I got a 1 gHz T-Bird, 256mb, 40.9gb, GeForce2Mx.
Not to bad, eh?

I got some crappy clothes that I''ll never wear.

Game Programming Gems. I've only read part of the first chapter, but I can already tell it's a great book.
