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.

Talking of which there is this version available which is the best of both worlds.

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