That was one of the biggest contests, I've ever put on for any of my sites: <strong>46 different prizes from13 different companies, totalling just over $7000 USD in prizes</strong>. Whew! I hope all of you Digital Home Thoughts readers enjoyed it, and that you'll return here again and again to read our news, reviews, and contribute to our community. One of the challenges in running a site with such a broad focus like this is it can be hard to build a critical mass of community - this contest was a mechanism to get people posting, get them involved in our forums, and get them reading the site. Keep coming back if you like what we do here!<br /><br />A big thank you goes out to all of the companies that donated awesome prizes to this contest: Microsoft and the <a href="http://windowsvistablog.com/" target="_blank">Windows Vista Team</a>, <a href="http://www.orbaudio.com">Orb Audio</a>, <a href="http://www.lumapix.com">LumaPix</a>, <a href="http://www.kingston.com">Kingston</a>, <a href="http://www.hp.com">HP</a>, <a href="http://www.audioengineusa.com">Audioengine</a>, <a href="http://www.corel.com">Corel</a>, <a href="http://www.cyberlink.com">Cyberlink</a>, <a href="http://www.pinnaclesys.com">Pinnacle</a>, <a href="http://www.proporta.com">Proporta</a>, <a href="http://www.ppctechs.com">PPC Techs</a>, <a href="http://www.roxio.com">Roxio</a>, and <a href="http://www.ntius.com">NTI</a>.<br /><br />And you'd think I'd be all done with contests for a bit, but nooooo, it's time to ramp up for the <a href="http://www.digitalhomethoughts.com/news/show/88795/31-days-of-the-dragon-the-hp-sponsored-160-000-giveaway.html" target="_blank">31 Days of the Dragon giveaway event</a>. <strong>Check back later today for the rules on how to enter to win</strong> an awesome $5500 prize pack, the centerpiece of which is an <a href="http://h20219.www2.hp.com/hho/cache/545097-0-0-225-121.html" target="_blank">HP Pavilion HDX9200</a>.

:) I wish these types of contests will come again


We'll continue to have contests for various things here, but it's unlikely we'll do a contest this big again for a while. Maybe when we hit a big anniversary date or something. :D

Yes, this was really a great contest! Even though it's not for the contests we keep coming back here, it's always fun with contests.

Thanks Jason and all contributors!
