Simple question

If you had a thousand dollars, what would you spend it on and why?

- Spend some of it on advertising Vlexo! = $200
- I'd get an IPB and vB owned license... (these scripts are goldmine!) = $160.00 + $149.99 = $309.9
- Save some of it in the bank! $440
- Status2k owned license!$49.95
Total: $559.94 (Minus the savings)

And you?!

Pfftt. With a $1000? You'd probably only get like $10 a year! (absurd guestimating)

That might be the best investigation but if I get 1000$ I can not wait spending them

[Davey G]

If i had $1000 lying around somewhere... Id probably set up a nice little Datacenter.
Facebook-alike kind of size, not too big & not too small..

Stock it up with some custom servers, sell some hosting.. make more dosh then buy more servers.. Then buy-out WiredTree so i can host Vlexos servers hehe
