Congratz to the winners! I wished I could have participated but construction at my house limited me the opportunity. I will continue crunching hopefully after this weekend once our new hardwood floors are laid

OH MY GOODNESS!

I've never won a contest like this before. But honestly the real winners are everyone since the point of this contest is for the good of humanity. :rockout:

I intend to use the X4 to upgrade Lauren's PC and take out her current X2 and use it and the rest of the parts to build a new PC for her older brother, whom is using some old socket 478 celeron right now. I intend to have him crunch on it to help the team. :D

Gratz winners! Heya twilyth where's ma munny?! :D

Ah, you have to tell me if you want paypal or newegg. For newegg, I can have them email the gift code to me and then send it to you in a pm - so I don't even need an email address.

And I've been pretty energetic recently (by my standards that is), so you should jump on this sooner rather than later.

Just think of me as an Ood - I live to serve :D ;)

Only about half of the people eligible have claimed their prize. Since I have no intention of cheaping out on my offer, if you don't contact me by a week from today, I'm putting all of the unclaimed money into a pot and dividing it up among the people who have or will contact me by then. :toast:
