It's not the kill, it's the thrill of the chase.
Seriously, once one has had a few items sniped out from under,
it's tough to even want to bid on an auction with more than two minutes
left. Of the 6 auctions that I bid on in the last week with more
than 30 minutes left, the only two I won were the ones I didn't
care about. In the other ones I bid what I thought was a reasonable
price but not at the high end--if I'd really *needed* it or had more
disposable income I would have bid more.
Perhaps Joshua's trying to save up to buy a really professional
OpenGL setup...
