Doctor who megapack...?

Well...it's up to you. I can never see myself spending 650 dollars on a set of DVD's, but that's just me...I can also say that many people here are going to tell you to go for the computer.

get the computer, 450 for a bunch of DVDs is too much, if they where blueray or HD then it might be a different story

The Purple Champ · 03-27-2007, 04:38 AM

the thing about the dvds are that it isnt just one or 2 movies, not even a bakers dozen. its 42 discs of the second greatest tv show ever(next to southpark, of course). plus its not shown anymore on us tv.

then on the other hand i would like my computer to be in the 21st centry. its a little slow for my tastes.

Download the movies with the computer.

The Purple Champ · 03-27-2007, 04:42 AM

cant find them. its not hip enough.

I am sure there somewhere on the internet...Youtube?...ebay?!!

Go with the computer...

And i am assuming...you have living money...Meaning... if you do buy a computer for around 1000...youll have money to get food and stuff..and pay the rent.
