Upgrading urges

What do you guys do when the urge hits you? I don't need to upgrade, but 2 of those raptors in a
raid-0 and a 9800 pro sure would be fun to play with.
I'm trying to save for a high end laptop. When they keep coming up with all these things my rig would like to play with, makes it hard to do.

Sorry Pred,
"Performance parts" and "VW" just don't go together.

I can't believe I have been running an XP2000+ and the same mainboard for about a year and haven't upgraded. I have toyed with the idea of buying an nforce board and trying for a pretty big OC with a t-bred, but it hardly seems worth it. And the only thing out there that seems to offer a real performance difference would be one of the new P4's and a canterwood mainboard.
The bucks I would have to invest don't seem to offer much of performance return.
Either the hardware/Overclocking scene is real slow, or I have lost my need for speed...

I feel the need for speed ... but my wallet says no. That's why I'm still driving my tbird @ 1600 and o/c'ed GF3 Ti200 ...
