    Like the title says: what do you want? If money wasn't a concern...what would you buy right now?

    There are 4 things I've been drooling over the past few weeks:
    A Linksys WRT600N router/wifi adapter card
    A Netgear ReadyNAS NV+
    A over-under shotgun
    a new sound system for our car

    And just like everything else in life, I have to wait to get any of those. The new router and card are about $300, the NAS box is about $900, the shotgun is anywhere from $800-$9000...but I can't justify spending more than $1500 on a shotgun, and the new sound system for our car would probably end up costing $600+.

    So, where are your priorities? :hmm: :rolling:

    ragusa, if you like the wild turkey 10 & the jim beam yellow, than try Kentucky Spirit(made by wild turkey) & Knob Creek(made by jim beam).

    If you want to go higher end Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old is the way to go.

    For a mid-priced premium Bookers(also made by jim beam) is the Best(IMHO) however it has a bit of a kick as it is about 125 proof as oppossed to 80 proof for most bourbons. You don't notice it until you stand up:)

    Well, I have in front of me a bottle of Elijah Craig 12 :heh: I presume the 18 years variant is beyond my budget, for now :) Knob Creek was recommended to me by a knowledgeable (read: thirsty & picky) friend. Kentucky Spirit and Bookers are something I'll keep in mind. Thanks for the hint.

    Odds are I'll try at a max two brands of Bourbon (one will be rye and the other normal) because the summer won't last all that long, and in the winter I drink Scotch ;)

    I couldn't agree more.

    - Internet access for my flat away from home

    - Photographic memory comes to mind... for the Boredom Personified which is my next exam.
