@rtwjunkie in for the Kreij Holiday 2015 PC:
I'm going to officially enter for my oldest son. He survives, and that is all, on a subsistence wage due to his circumstances. Due to being 3 months early 24 years ago, his development is not what it should have been mentally. He's a good man, but doomed to never being successful, though he tries. We thought his one chance at being good at something, and feeling a part of something, as well as having a strong group of people around him where he could learn a good skill and probably could be successful would be to join the military.
Sadly, he cannot even do that, failing the physical, due to a degenerative eye disease which is only cured by surgery, otherwise it will lead to blindness. He is too old for my vision insurance which could fix it, and it is not covered by health insurance. Because he works to survive, he has no ability to game like he sincerely enjoys doing. I got him a gaming laptop about 5 years ago, but it has since broken, and of course he cannot afford to get or build a PC.
I would love for him to be able to game again, and with his good character he would use the PC to crunch when not being used if I asked him, and because he would want to help others.
I'm Also In for the MSI Z97/Pentium G3258 mb/cpu combo donated by @RealNeil for my fiance, who wants desperately to build computers. that seems like the perfect equipment as a base to start her on that path!
What makes me happy anytime, but especially during the holidays are when I hear from my children who are adults, and when I am with my fiance, a woman for whom circumstances were not right and kept us apart for 20 years until we could be together. She is my rock!
Thank you to the wonderful community here at TPU! Thank you to everyone who has donated to this project and all the others who have given their support. This really is an excellent forum, because of the PEOPLE..
Very touching post @rtwjunkie, I can certainly see why @thebluebumblebee said what he said.

Honestly, it's getting difficult to read through some of these threads, this thread especially, without getting a little teary-eyed, in the best sense.
