OK guys. I'm going to treat myself, come pay day, but I can't decide what to actually get.

THIS or THESE!

Laptop (not necessarily the one linked - needs more research)
Pros:
~ I've wanted one for ages;
~ It'd come in handy for travelling (my ickle DVD player whirs very loudly, and just looks a bit pathetic next to everyone else on the train with lovely shiny laptops!);
~ Pretty!
~ Surfing the net, sitting on the couch!
~ My current PC is a desktop, and is about four and a half years old.

Cons:
~ It could be anywhere from a bit more expensive to much more expensive than the shoes, once all the extras have been chosen;
~ I have a pretty decent functioning desktop already that's only four and a half years old (I'm not sure if that's old for a PC or not!).

Shoes
Pros:
~ Pretty!
~ I'll make people so jealous!
~ Cheaper than the laptop.

Cons:
~ OH, THE GUILT! I've never spent that much on a pair of shoes in my life, and the thought of it makes me break out into a sweat! It's SUCH an extravagance. At least most people would agree that a laptop is worth a few hundred. Few people would say that about a pair of shoes.
~ 9cm heels. I think I've established that I'm not very good at wearing heels any more.
~ Slingbacks and me haven't exactly gotten on in the past.
~ Seriously guys, the guilt!

Thoughts? Comments? Opinions? Admonitions for even considering spending that much on a pair of shoes?
