Good News Everybody!
I'm on my third rotation and my mentor is much less... strict and overbearing. This has brought my mood up considerably even if it is at a slight cost in productivity. Oh well, c'est la vie.
I've now purchased a computer for $200. It's spec'd ok for the price: 2.2ghz Athlon 64 x2, 2gb RAM, 750gb HD and DVD-RW... w/ very few extra features beyond the minimum for its specs.
I've also purchased, recently, a 32" TV (720p, Vizio) for $250.
Total cost for the whole bedroom setup? $450! Or, $465 with shipping and a special delivery charge. Not bad all told!
Also, gotta give props to luagha for recommending woot and 1 sale a day! Thanks!
