#64I would put it towards buying a ZipIt[1], which I would then use for web browsing (elinks), coding (vim) and maybe even DOS gaming (DosBOX). I like that it's hackable, and I like that it's affordable--unlike an iPod Touch or Android device :/

#67I'm thinking of trying NearlyFreeSpeech.net - I'd been paying about $250/year for shared hosting that was so-so quality, and after I closed down a couple projects I don't have the traffic that I'd need lots of mediocre quality hosting. That's what I'd get online. Offline, rice and coffee.
I created a small website which I hosted on NearlyFreeSpeech.net because of their flexible pricing. I put 15$ in my account and got 14$ after the deduction of $1 as their fees or something.
It's been over 3 months now and I still have $2 in my NFS account while the site has made me over $280 in Google Adsense and $30 in Amazon commissions.
I can't think of any other web host for a simple static HTML pages site.
