Cash rules everything around me...

I never really want anything for xmas, but if I had to pick one item this year I would probably pick a Nintendo Wii (assuming I don't buy one myself)

If you want, you could pick me up a Sony XBR2 46" LCD tv. I just spent my money on a new camera.

I'd like a new TV. I really have no idea what kind since I don't really follow the technologies closely. Something nice and HD

If I was using my own money as an Xmas gift to myself then a 32" Widescreen LCD. I still use a 50 plus pound CRT TV and it's a PITA to move. I think that size is decent enough. What are they priced nowadays? $1200?

An XGA projector instead of the SVGA unit I currently have, although I am not complaining. It's nice having an approximate 96" diagonal pull down screen to watch at any time.

200 watt x 3 channel amp. Either Rotel or Adcom.
I'm trying to find a reasonable price for one of these, ideally a Rotel RMB-993. I don't think they made very many of them, though.
