    Yea so, i need to buy some stuff for Uni. I'm pretty open to ideas, but there's a few things that i feel are an absolute must;

    • Bean bag, big enough that i can sleep on
    • Wireless Headphones, high quality that will plug into ipod, so i can listen to music walking around
    • Portable Harddrive,
    • Wicker Basket
    So if you have any recommendations or tips, particularly on the bean bag / wireless headphones aspect, that would be great, because i don't want to spend loaads.

    If you have a computer you should get an (avg i think) cable, so you can use screen as a tv for xbox and such rather than fitting in a separate tv.

    Minifridge fo drinks and such.

    A comfertable pillow.

    Yea a mini-fridge is something i was thinking of, that would be good.

    I have a 21in TV, Xbox and top spec laptop with HDMI out. I have VGA and HDMI cables. I also have a pen tablet, and some pretty good logitech speakers, and an iphone, but that's as far as it goes for electronics.

    I fancied a bean bag that would be big enough and comfy enough to sleep on, so it would probably have to be a nice material and not leather.

    If you're going to get a bean bag chair get a good one. Most are really bad and you're just sitting on the floor. I have a great one, but i don't remember were i got it. I'll update this post if i find the bean bag chair i got. This might be the website.

    For the bean bag chair, the Sumo Sultan and the Sumo Gigantor both look like pretty big bean bags and my friend has one of the smaller ones and they're extremely nice. As for headphones, pretty much all wireless headphones are way too expensive for what you get. I would recommend these, I got 'em for under $100 and they were a steal. Actually, Ultimate Ears makes everything really good; I'd buy any of their products.

    So, like a bean bag in the stead of a bed? bad call. You want to seperate your sleeping and sitting places.

    Wireless sucks as far as my experience goes, go with wired Bose or Sony or something.

    LaCie's pretty good for reliable HDDs.

    You should also get big coolers. For stuff.

    You'd be surprised how lackluster Bose and Sony are compared to Ultimate Ears, Monster Cable, and Shure.
    And what Mace said is true. Generally, you wanna keep a separate place for where you sleep, especially if you have any trouble sleeping. However, not everyone has that problem.

    ^A hammock's not a bad idea, bro. I knew a guy who had that over his normal bed in case he ever fell. Which is stupid 'cause he'd fall to the side and not directly below the hammock.

    Anyway. What?

    I should try them out sometime...
