What's that? You haven't watched them yet? <a href="http://www.digitalhomethoughts.com/news/show/98273/lenovo-thinkcentre-a70z-all-in-one-desktop-computer-unboxing-and-first-impressions.html" target="_blank">Go ahead and watch them</a>, I'll wait.</p><p>OK, now that you've checked out my initial videos on what the A70z has to offer, you might be thinking <em>"Hey, that's a pretty cool computer, I can think of a few interesting uses for it!"</em>. Well, lucky you, Digital Home Thoughts is one of <strong>21 different Web sites</strong> that are <em><strong>each</strong> </em>giving away a brand new A70z! That's 21 different opportunities to win, and over $15,000 worth of sweet Lenovo hardware up for grabs! Each site will have their own type of contest, so you'll want to check out each one on the opening day of the contest and see what you have to do to enter.

This contest is open to anyone in the USA or Canada, largely because this PC is only being sold in the USA and Canada. Sorry rest-of-world, I didn't make that rule. Anyone that wins one of the contests is disqualified from winning in any of the others.</p><p>So what will the Digital Home Thoughts contest be? I'm not sure - I'm thinking this contest might be a bit different than some of the others I've run in the past...I might ask you to actually <em>do </em>something more than just post a message. ;-) We'll see though!</p><p><em>*The Lenovo above has a wireless mouse and keyboard, but the ones in this contest do not.</em></p>
