“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. 
It matters that you don't just give up.”

-Stephen Hawking

Well, I think that it is better to be frugal than over spending, especially in early ages like before 40.  

Hard to overspend when you don't have money. :')

The worst: This one i gave to myself, a Denon DCM-360. It worked for a few months, played some discs on it, busted the audio out board in 4 months of use, and now it sits on my shelf.

 

The best: After complaining to my mother about the broken Denon above, i also mentioned i really wanted an SACD playback device. Next thing i know, on my birthday, she came to me and handed me this huge box, with a champagne colored Sony DVP-NS900V inside, the rarest color of the model. She said she bought it from a dude on HTForum (local AV forum, very traditional). It looks like a brand new device, it came in the original box, it has the note of purchase, the manuals, the controller, a pair of Van Damme RCA cables, oh, just perfect! 

Holy shit, I used to have a DCM-360 when I was 8 or 9 years old (I'm 17 now).

Machine instantly recognizable from miles away.

 

I had it together with this machine:

Denon-DRA-1025RA-front.jpg

And 2 giant speakers.

 

The CD-Player's disc changing mechanism destructed itself, afterwards I have never seen it again.

I think my parents just tossed it out. Shame really, was a nice machine.

Perhaps i meant milliamp hour. you're right, 800KWh is enough to power an entire home for almost a month lol. I'm able to fully charge a small bluetooth speaker if im lucky. xD

For 2 months i would say, maybe 3 depending on the house.

Just plug it in your notebook and get infinite Power :D

Ultra is stupid. ALWAYS.
