I have a few things that I'm boggling to save to get this year and I need some opinion from you all.

I already have a car BTW, I'm just crazy about Trans-Ams!

If your computer is really lacking I would go for the laptop. Otherwise, an HDTV. I saved up over the summer and bought a 32" Samsung LCD HDTV and an Xbox 360. At first I was a little reluctant at spending over a thousand dollars on one piece of equipment; but I don't regret it one bit, it has been one of my best purchases.

None of the above. Since we hardly know you, or what you do, apart from the fact that you like trans Ams, and More rockstar makes no sense, I'd save it, and give it to me.

... Hey that moneys only going one place shugah..

Yes. Definately buy the HDTV, I have a 48" PHILIPS LCD, and the 360 does look freakin' sweet on it :) you'd want to make sure it supports 1080i or I think the newest version is 1080p. Better start saving now, or convince your parents either way, its one of life's most brilliant inventions

If you are a true loser like me, don't go for an LCD or Plasma.

Plasma = burn in = yuck
LCD = slow refresh rate

DLP is defenitely the best choice if size isn't an issue, and they are alot more bang for your buck. A 46" DLP is much cheaper than a Plasma or LCD at the same size. I just made a large purchase myself (46" Samsung DLP, looks 5x better than any LCD or Plasma anyways =D) so i've done all my homework already, i'm your man if you choose an HDTV.

That Trans Am sounds pretty good though.

Lol I knew a lot of people would suggest electronics.

Look at it this way:

1: You can't pick up chicks on a TV or laptop.
2: You can't drive around in a badass car on a TV or Laptop
3: Just get it :D

If I were you I wouldn't trust anamomous people on the internet for what to do with your money.

But..

Save up for a nice monitor then buy the 40 buck 360 VGA HDTV cable, cheap HD for you. :D

Better than sitting watching an HDTV or playing on a laptop, though.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
