;)I posted a response to the youtube video my s/n is BigJim2 on youtube and JimPott2 on here. I hope the response I posted on youtube is still up because i just looked for it and i couldn't find it. I believe that I deserve in so many ways! I would share it with my girlfriend who also is intrigued by computers, software, hardware, photo and video editing. I also want to go to college for video game design and I have to get a laptop that can handle editing of all sorts as well as video games. I just recently bought a 52 sharp aquos hdtv and the computer would be amazing to hook up to the big screen through hdmi. I live, sleep dream drool over electronics and things i can do with them. This "laptop" , which in fact just like you said in the video this can hardly be described as a laptop this is a DRAGON! I want to go to college and have this with me everywhere even though it is a big computer i wouldn't care how big it is just to see the amazing power this baby is pushing and the graphics the processor just everything about it makes me drool!!! Please I need this with me. Thank you,

Jimmy

YouTube responses don't show up right away - usually within the hour they'll appear. So go back and check for your response later and I bet it will be there...

I the dragon would rock my world by letting me be able to play great computer games and homework for school and it would replace my five year old current computer that cannot even play on low settings it would also help me with video editing considering for my school i have already done 5 projects to do with videos and i would like to be able to make them look much better than what my current computer can do.

The 17th seems so-o-o-o-o f-a-a-a-a-r awa-a-a-a-y!!!!!! I keep wishing and hoping on every star I see each night...I want one so bad it's killing me. I just keep thinking I'm not lucky enough for something this grand, ya know? ARGH!!!!!

Well, have no choice but to wait, BUT I'm really crossing my fingers, toes, baby's toes, baby's fingers and then some in hopes that someone, somewhere could hear my begging...(LOL).

Good luck to everyone anyways (even though I'd be really, really envious of you/me).

You sound like a kid the night before Christmas. :D The day is drawing near, that's for sure - we're more than halfway done...

First of all thumbs up to, hp, buzzcorp, and the 31 sites thoughts media in particular for this series of giveaways. very nice way to get exposure beyond the individual user base. I've enjoyed discovering a number of the sites beyond the few I was familiar with. This dragon looks like an ideal gaming/media center pc (though I suspect whoever designed it was slightly mad ;) ). Good luck to all participants. Cheers, ps: my youtube user name is mcastagne

Unfortunately, computers (especially this one) make me foam at the mouth...cant help it. :p;)

How are you doing Jason? are you holding up to the stress/fun?

Nah, there's no real stress - just a bit of extra work. It's all fun!

I've posted my comment on YouTube as Olsfen1. This computer would actually more than ROCK my life. It would actually completely change it. I'm actually posting this comment from an old scrappy computer; an IBM netvista (I don't actually know what this means) with a Pentium 3 and it's running Windows 98. It's really huge and it makes more sound then my speakers. And then there's my "screen". It came with my first computer which had a 186 MHz CPU (that was a really good computer at the time). With my studies I can't afford a new computer. !!

Can't say I'm not anxious. There's a greater chance of not making it as opposed to winning, but there's still that chance of it being you!

I definitely don't envy Jason, the picking is going to be tough.

Jason, I was mesmerised by your vid on YouTube and was so elated to learn all about the Dragon that I posted my appreciation of your detailing of the Dragon and forgot to say why it would rock me to have one. I can't edit my comments and don't want to double post, unless you let me know that it is ok to do that. Oh, well, even if this puts me out of the contest, I do thank you for the vid ... it was great ... and really is the best explanation of the prize I have seen. Thank you.

Well the contest is over, so it's kind of a moot point by now. :o
