Wow.. it feels like only yesterday that I wrote my 2007 gear roundup... then the server died and I nearly lost my whole site! This time I have backed up my site already!

Cool thing about having a blog is how you can go back and reflect on what you were doing a year ago. So let's see what was I up to for 2008.

Most important purchase of the year would have to be my first DSLR camera. The Sony Alpha 350.

Thumbdrives got so ridiculously cheap I lost count of how many I bought.

An interesting piece of gear, which I find indispensable in recording gameplay videos and other things is the Pinnacle Video Transfer unit.

I bought quite a few figures.. like Haruhi here. Here's to hoping I don't get anymore.

There was a sudden increase in desktops in the household as I got some MiniITX based units like this for running Windows Home Server and other misc chores.

And of course... I haven't broken the curse of getting one new phone a year.

Happy New Year everyone! Here's to hoping 2009 is not as bad as it's looking right now!
