Anker Soundcore Motion B speaker as a well done for my daughter's school report. I know it's not that super but looks fine for the price.

Re: What have you just bought?
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
It was supposed to be a birthday gift from my daughter & son-in-law, but the PC version can't be bought anywhere but Blizzard, and you have to "friends" for 3 days before they could gift it to me, so I've bought it, and they will transfer the funds to me.
133GB download about to start...

Nice present Hugh, although a little on the large side
I'll never forget the first 'windows' computer I bought, I distinctly remember the salesman saying " it has a 4.2 GB hard drive . . you'll never fill that"

Re: What have you just bought?
I have 2 x 500GB SSDs, and 2 x 2TB HD - OS on one SSD, games on the other, documents and media on one HD, Photos and other stuff on the other; all photos and documents backed up to OneDrive, Amazon Photos, and Google Drive (as well as a portable HD, which I keep at the MiLs when it's not backing stuff up (monthly)).

Re: What have you just bought?
My first PC (25 Mhz 386DX) which cost over a grand, had a 40 Mbyte HDD. In the pre-Windoze days (DOS 3.1) that seemed quite large.
Just recently added 2 Terabyte drive for HD films to the current desk machine (128G SSD, 500G HDD) which doubles up as a media server. This has bays and interfaces for another 3 drives. At the rate it's filling up I'll soon need to get another drive as well.

Flowable silicone to hopefully seal a tiny gap in the windscreen and sunroof seals that have been making puddles in both footwells.
