    I’d put it toward the Ion USB turntable to convert my vinyl to digital, something I was supposed to do years ago.

    I’d put it towards one of these: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/tools/9e3f/

    Well, I actually would not spend it yet. I would wait for this to be put into production and made available.http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/illuminated/a5bf/
    and then I would buy that.

  8. Posted by Spencer

    I’d have to go with the classic choice: http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/supplies/61b7/

    Man, I have wanted that stapler forever.

  9. Posted by Justin Hollender

    So many choices. I would love to get the mini R/C helicopter to freak my cats out: http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/rc/934c/, or it could go towards a cool new watch: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/watches/5cf4/, or any of their t-shirts, like the Blue Sun: http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/popculture/a231/

    I’d buy the Lexon Around Clock, I haven’t yet found a room clock that matches my room until now!

    By using these moleskine notebooks, you can keep yourself organized, look sharp, and save money. Think of it as a PDA, with no huge price tag.
    Spy remote is useful when useful when someone is annoying you with the TV or you want the TV to be off when your with your girl.
    Wi-fi detecting watch, save time finding hotspot by just looking at your watch.
    To me, this seems like a good combo for any guy that is at least techno savvy

  14. Posted by Joe

    How about… an rc tank that shoots airsoft pellets? http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/rc/6279/ Sounds like fun to me!

    My husband, a Unix Admin, loves Think Geek, so it would be great to win this. I wish I could remember the t-shirts he likes, but a lot of the jokes make no sense to me. I think he’d like the PEBKAC one

    or the Hacker work shirt

    I would buy the usb turntable to digitalize my records or the wifi shirt to wear across campus to use my comp between classes.
