I've also been wonderng whens "time" . .

Hehe... maybe you should buy little jimmy a nice new cpu, and then (seeing as he only plays <insert old, little-sys-resource using gaming title here>), give him (out of the kindness of your heart), your cpu. Then, 'borrow' his for extended periods.

Same goes for his new psp/ds... need a pick-me-up on long journeys? grab his psp and tell him to read a book... It's good for him!

Just kidding... I accept no angry wives shouting at me for horrendously improper advice

[doobiwan]

Believe me, I've tried all of those before. I think she'll at least expect my son to be able to say "DS" before I convince her he needs one I've got him to "D", 15 letters to go to "S" . . . .
