Super-expensive gifts for the rich and excessive
This year, we're doing things a bit differently. Rather than just the dull recitation of popular products, we've turned to the ZATZ editors, to a bunch of experts in the Internet Press Guild, and to a bunch of tech gaming enthusiasts, my own gaming buddies in the Iron Phoenix gaming community. Together, we've put together a series of articles that take you from the wildly super expensive to the incredibly cheap. From the taste and style of a Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR to the incredibly sad $1.99 English Soldier Mini Massager Vibrator (yep, it's sex toy). To feed your inner Bill Gates, we defined the super-expensive category as anything from about $5,000 up to, well, absolutely no top end. You ain't gettin' it, but you can dream.
Expensive (but worth it) gifts for the truly worthy
So, no one's going to buy you that Bugatti Veyron you're dreaming of, eh? Well, perhaps you're loved enough to merit a gift that's just expensive ($500-$5,000), rather than something in the millions. If you're looking for geek toy love, you've found the right place.
Nice gifts for givers on a $50-500 budget
Bummed that the WestBay yacht is going to someone else this holiday season? Dejected that no one would share Alienware love with you? Perhaps you're still moderately worthy. Here's our $50-500 gift guide.
Cheap and disturbing gifts under $50
Couldn't find a Wii? No one going to buy you that fancy laptop? Someone else is going into space with Virgin Galactic? There's no need to fret. No matter how down on your luck you are, we can find a fun, inexpensive, or completely weird and possibly insulting gift for you. |

FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
Looking forward to 2007
Another year is coming to an end, which of course means another year is about to begin. Funny how that works. As the new millenia turns one year older, our thoughts turn to the happenings of the past year and wishes for the year to come.
