Dilema: New Laptop, XBOX or save the cash?

Oh.. ive just finished my exams.. woohoo, but am getting really bored now as everyone else has still got exams and ive got 2 weeks to kill..

Anyway.. my laptop has been pretty knackered for a while now.. the battery has gone dead, the screen is broken and its just generably unuseable. Ive had it for 4 years... but its now past its sell by date.

The thing is.. laptops cost like £1000 which is a lot of money, and although i could do with a new one i also wouldnt mind an xbox. My parents never let me buy a games console cos they thought it would affect my exams... and theyre probably right! but now i never have to sit an exam again.. it sounds like a good idea, plus its £800 cheaper..

On the other hand i could always save the money.. I wanna go on holiday this year and while i can do both, perhaps i can go somewhere better with the money.. also theres the cost of getting my own place with my girlfriend, which also wont be cheap..

HELP!!

Save the money.

Wait until the (around) Thanksgiving release of the X-Box 360, the next generation X-Box.

PS3 actually has a release date of around Fall of next year, if that soon, even.

Also, current rumours circulating are saying that you'll have to lay down $500 USD for it. Eesh.

Guys, i'm thinking of buying laptop and a serato scratch live.

Probably buying a mac laptop..the 12inch G4

Yay or nay?

I cant afford vinyls anymore,so this is probably the next best option.

How old are you, first of all?

If you're like 21 or older and you're debating wasting your money on some video games, or saving it or purchasing something useful like a laptop you need to stop right now and get over the video games.
