Post what you want for <Holiday Name Here>, and how likely it is someone other than yourself will get one for you.

Present: A car.
Likelyhood: Not fucking likely.

A giant robot, or a swarm of smaller robots.
My weight in skittles.
Other things that nobody will get me because everyone thinks they are unreasonable.

Prognosis: not good.

Moved to Off Topic forum.

Either a new guitar or a new computer.

Tablet PC capable of running hammer, corel painter IX and photoshop (not all at the same time though, that would be mad)

Analysis - It wont happen

A new acoustic guitar - Very likely

A GeForce 7800 vidcard - somewhat likely

DirectX 10 video card - I don't think so.

I don't celebrate <Holiday Name Here>, but a few people still refuse to stop giving me gifts. Haha. They've already told me what they're getting too:

1. Gears of War (PC) and TimeShift (PC)
2. ThinkGeek ultimate hoodie
3. Pajamas and underwear.

If I made a wishlist though...it would have on it TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY 300mW lasers from WickedLasers...so that I could tape them all together in a huge tube...have mirrors in the tube to focus the 250 lasers into one stream and rig it all up to be controlled by a single trigger...to make a 75,000mW laser bazooka.

Likelyhood: Probably not.

I would really not recommend you wish a 7 series video card.
Wait a little longer till the DirectX10 cards drop in price, and then wish a 8800 GT

But, it is not in my power to tell you what to do, so...

JVC Universal Touchpad Remote (http://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/vanns/750499368?$large_item$)
Likelyhood: Maybe, it's one of the only things I asked for.

New Computer (no idea what parts, specs, etc)
Likelyhood: Almost a definite. Not because I asked for one, but because I am going to use my <Holiday Name Here> bonus from work and any money that I get to put towards it.

Money! - I am very poor and need to buy food / put gas in my car (definite)
Guitar Hero - Sweet game.... (somewhat likely)
Laptop - I didn't actually ask for one, but my parents said they bought me 1 'big' thing, and I can't think of anything else big that they would get me, but it seems a bit expensive for <Holiday Name Here>... (less than likely)

Want:
1) Various high end computer parts, so I can build a new computer.
2) The AL-20 hydrogen gas generator
3) A playstation 3
4) A HDTV (32" would be nice)
5) Socks. Lots of them.

Plausability:
1) Nope.
2) I highly doubt it.
3) I don't think so.
4) Not a chance.
5) Quite possibly the only thing on my list that I will get.

I like your thinking. A giant laser cannon capable of atomizing passing cats sounds damn fun.
