31 Days of Dragons

[joule]

Neowin (and 30 other sites) is hosting their very own contest with a chance to win HP's new Pavillion HDX 9000 "Dragon" Entertainment notebook. Valued at over $5000!

Here's the scoop...

Following our previous announcement of this exciting competition, Neowin is proud to be setting somewhat of a creative challenge to all our members, for the chance to win the HP Pavillion HDX 9000 "Dragon" Entertainment notebook package worth over $5000.

Continuing from the dragon-themed prize, we want you to record a short audio clip, no more than one minute in length, telling us what you'd do if you had a real life dragon at your disposal. Alternative pet? Crime-fighting force to be reckoned with? Let us know your thoughts in the most creative way you can imagine. Be it a moody poetry reading, comedy skit or choral singing, entertain us here at Neowin and you could be winning this fantastic prize courtesy of HP and Buzzcorps.

We'll be choosing a winner on May 27 2008 which gives you seven days from the start of the competition.

Digg it.

Advertising? Pfft.. take this opportunity and make the best of it. There's no doubt in my mind that the members of HL2.net are a creative bunch. Good luck!

pr0n.

Yeah this is so not advertising! It just so happens Joule works for HP, but that's completely unrelated.

Srsly, I wouldn't be able to think of a 1 minute recording. Except Dragon Bestiality.

Why link to Digg then? You want us to help you get it to even more people, that's why.

Interesting. How does one become a member of Neowin.net? I'm curious to see what this "Dragon" is capable of in my own hands. I guess that means I have less than six days to complete my audio report on why dragons should only exist under my direction. Nobody else but me should be allowed to own a "Dragon". (pun intended)

Dragon beasty sex is not my intention. Really it isn't. :cheese:

Seems like a loss, seeing as you could get the same tech (individually) for cheaper...but its still worth it, especially if selling is involved.

but it's free if the participant wins the contest right? Free > cheap.
