If you don't ask...

I asked my new boss for a RAM upgrade; I had only 512Mb, and I've now got 2Gb. Compile times seem to be at least twice as fast. What should I ask for next?

A pony would be fun!

Mihir, I saw that you were reading HFDP, that started me thinking about getting it. I'm using the free version of CodeSmith 2.6, but the 2.6 studio didn't look worth the money - I could do everything in VS or the explorer. I haven't looked into version 3.0 properly yet - it may be more useful. I would love to use Resharper, but it doesn't work with .NET 2.0 yet. As soon as it does...

Sadly the Mondeo has gone to car heaven. I've just bought a Galaxy, so a payrise would be very handy right now.

Bigger monitor or multiple monitors. Screen real estate == productivity.

I agree. I have 2 monitors already; should I go for a third?
