UPDATE 1-25-08: Sorry about the delays with the purchases in a nutshell (I'm considering calling it "The Fast List for Purchasing" now) list, I've been quite busy lately with homework. :\ I'll get to posting it in a new news post soon, though, hopefully today or tomorrow. ;)

Augh, I'm HUNGRY! >:(

UPDATE 1-22-08: I'm putting all musical activities on hold for now, I've ordered a few new awesome things (the sample CD Vengeance Essential Clubsounds Volume 2, for example) and I don't want to start anything new without them. ;)

On a second note, the list is coming along nicely - I've already got contributions from an incredible number of users! :D Seriously, thanks - all two of you.

XD

Humor aside, if anyone would like to help out with this list, just look at the below update for a short summary if you'd like and send a PM my way. It'd definitely be appreciated. :D

UPDATE 1-16-08: EEEEUUUGGGHHH. I just realized how horrible my current banner/user image look now that we've gone back to the incredibly... orange layout. XD Changing them now...

Also, I just realized that I put 07 as the year for the dates of the last two updates. Ah, the new year... :D

I'm going to start a new list! Basically, it'll be a fast list for anyone who wants quick, general advice on what to buy. I'll have short, 2-3 sentence comments for a product, from people who own and use that product. If anyone wants to know more, then they can PM that user. More than one user can comment on a product - that way there's more info from more than one person. ;)

If anyone wants to help with this list, just send a PM my way, or leave a comment here! ;D

UPDATE 1-13-08: Inspiration/motivation have gone flat again. :\ I won't be submitting anything for a while. Though if you really want something from me, just contact me personally somehow - PM, IM, e-mail - and I'll get something to you. ;)

UPDATE 1-11-08: It turns out New-Milkman was right - it took something like five minutes to upgrade my computer's RAM; only a part or two was changed. So, hello 2 GB RAM! :D So far, I'm quite impressed... FL Studio's running a lot faster than before, and it has yet to give me grief with anything. :P

As for music, I'm going to do the big compilation idea. It'll be a bit of a bother to plan, and then put together in Audacity, but it'll be worth it. ;D Be patient, it'll get finished over the weekend...

UPDATE 1-9-08: So I'm reading Shakespeare (the Tempest D:) in school, and guess what? We got to read the funniest line for homework today. :D

"...Dost thou hear?"

Miranda: "Your tale, sir, would cure deafness."

Shakespeare's awesome sometimes. :D

Also, all of a sudden I'm listening to this guy all the time - AWESOME trance, and nothing less. :D It's mainly the first song up there, Sugarless, though I'm going to have a look at those other songs sooner or later once I get bored of it... it might be a while, though! XD

As for my computer... well, since the last update, it never left. We keep forgetting to take it! >:(

UPDATE 1-7-08: So I've decided: I'm going to submit something once I get my laptop back. What'll it be? Well, I don't know myself. :P I'm going to take a look around, and submit what I like. It may or may not be what I mentioned in the last news post - actually, it probably won't be. But we'll see... ;D

By the way, I didn't say last time how much RAM I'm upgrading to. So I will now: 2 Gigabytes. I can't wait. >:)

--

So today happens to be the last day of my break. >:( I didn't get too much done over it, though that probably was because I was on vacation. :D Ah well. I did get some stuff done... I also still have the same two potential submissions (see previous news post).

I'm also getting my computer taken in soon for a few days for some RAM upgrading - the story why is a really short one when I say I've got 504 megabytes of RAM. And I'd be glad to lengthen it to anyone who asks privately, as it's a REALLY long story - sometimes my computer can take in the neighborhood of 20-25 minutes just to get me logged on and ready to use whatever it is that I want to use. >:(

So, again, I won't be on the computer as much as I'd like to be. I still will be responding to PMs, reviews, and e-mails - from school, or from another computer at home - but I won't be using FL Studio and access to messenger programs will be possible but more difficult, due to the RAM upgrade. :\ Hopefully it'll all be over soon. ;D In the meantime, I'll see if I can get something submitted before then...
