The 'what I got for X-mas' thread.


Recommended Posts

I already got a new mountain bike from my mom. :yes:

I am also for sure getting some cash from my grandpa, a DVD about all the hurricanes that hit the Southeast this past summer from my mom, and likely I am getting a computer program from my mom as well. :yes: :D (although I forget which one I asked her to buy for me. :( )

Still 24th 6pm here.

Got myself a sandwish press for my kitchen. Oh I love kebabs so this machine will toast me some! :D

I think I am getting a graphics card from my parents to help me upgrade my pc.

EDIT: Spelling mistakes

All I asked for was a nice dinner and time with the family since they're really busy. On the other hand, I bought myself a Dell 2005FPW as my Christmas gift. Perhaps I will be surprised at what I get because I really didn't have anything I wanted.

    • BS, I've yet to run into a typical pc user that uses it at all, let alone half the population.

    • The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
