1. Western Digital My Book World Edition II - 2TB - Price: 360$
From what I`ve seen so far, this is the best thing I could buy right now. And kicks the new "media center PC" idea out the door.
- It it very easy to configure.
- It does the job in the background.
- It has RAID 1 - that`s 1TB of mirrored data. Just what the doctor ordered.
- It CAN BE a media center ... connected to my XBox 360. Uuuhuuu!
- I can access it from anywhere in the world! Not that I do this very often but I can think of something pretty cool: I don`t have to send loved-ones files over the YMessenger application anymore. I can "upload" them to the drive and they can download the files themselves using MioNet.
- It can later be upgraded with two 2TB hard-drives. If you want, you can buy the "maximum of 2TB data" version: My Book Mirror Edition it costs only 270$ and can be used as a RAID 0 (no mirroring but you can use the whole 2TB capacity) - but uses USB connection only rendering it useless to me.
Everything I said is presented pretty nice in these videos.

2. The 15"HP Envy (now that`s @ a reasonable price) - Price: 2000$
- Because it can "has" 2 SSD drives in RAID 1.
- Because it has a Quad Core.
- Because it looks very good.
- Because it has a secondary battery very thin that sticks to the whole bottom of the laptop in a very stylish manner.
- Because it it can "has" up to 16GB of ram (that`s 4 slots ... i`m drooling already).

5. Logitech Illuminated Keyboard - Price: 120$
