It is finally time to begin the contest to win our HP Pavilion HDX Dragon PC and we are probably as excited to give it away as you are to win it.
There will be three winners in total; the grand prize winner will take home the HDX Dragon with some bundled software, the 2nd place winner will take home a Slappa.com notebook bag, and the 3rd place will take home a Slappa.com notebook sleeve.
So what do you have to do to win?
Create a video, or take pictures (Not required to make a video or do both) of your current work space, or show us your current system.
Upload your video or pictures to any video or picture hosting site, such as YouTube or Flickr. Tag your video or pictures (not required but will give you bonus points) with the following keywords: HardwareGeeks.com, HP, HDX, 31 days and 31 sites.
Visit this forum thread, embed your pictures or video into a post (registration required but free) and tell us how the HDX system would benefit you.
Don’t give me no sob story about how you will sell it to feed your village in Africa, be honest because no matter how good your story may be I will eliminate you if I suspect it to be false.
That’s it, that is all you have to do, and have fun doing it!
Bonus Points will help you win:
Bonus Point Option 1: Make a Video for HardwareGeeks.com and HP (commercial like), promoting the HDX system.
Bonus Point Option 2: Take a picture of your self holding a HardwarweGeeks.com Logo in front of something or someplace interesting

Doing any of the bonus points will give you a better chance of winning, but does not guarantee victory.

so if we are under 18 and doesn’t have to file taxes, does the W9 form go to our parents?
on Wed, May 28th, 2008 at 11:40 PM
From my understand you will have to file the taxes on your own, and make sure you put that your parents are claiming you.

is it possible if whoever wins the laptop, and is a minor to just provide their parents’ info instead of their own? so the work is cut short…

That would probably be easier, but your parents might not want the increased tax burden if you won.

Due to a fire at our datacenter over the weekend, the site was down for nearly 3 days.
The site is still not 100% up to speed, and may take another day to be 100%.
We know the contest ends today but we have requested permission from sponsors and other sites participating to extend the contest.
But as of yet the contest has not been extended.

I was unable to access your site for last 4 days. I just submitted an entry through email. Please accept that. I found that another website has posted winner’s name. I don’t know that is true.
