Double shine. Darn it, too fast t77! "Basic HD6000 Series detection"... Perhaps we'll soon know more about these new cards!

Hey Wizz, Is it safe to assume that you set these promotions up when you're in Taiwan for Computex?

Has there been a change to the rules?
I believe there was a change - only one person/pc/ip per entry now, not multiple computers/entries etc.
Or was that idea quashed?

Maybe do a US only giveaway, then a Europe only giveaway, etc. etc. One for each continent. Then an Antarctica only one

Makes a nice change from most online giveaways where ONLY U.S. applicants are allowed. In fact, about 90% of giveaways are like that

Anyway, I did notice that no-one from France has won. Yet.

Ludivic did, but he didn't reply to the e-mail so the prize was given to someone else.
Wouldn't you just hate yourself if you did that? I feel sorry for him/her
