My Amazon wish list is full of developer books, PS3 games and couple pieces of hardware. I usually build out a PC or two worth of parts on NewEgg.

I'm flush with ideas and deal sites for the things I like, but I have no clue what to get for the inlaws or my family.

i bet they would like the new WoW expansion, assuming they dont already have it o_o
