Today’s HP Magic Giveaway sites are OSNN, SlashGear, and Digital Home Thoughts. Bear in mind that each site will have their own requirements for the giveaway, and they may also have their own rules that will not apply on other sites.
Here’s a quick synopsis of today’s giveaway sites’ details…
We’re looking for a winner who’s generous and thoughtful in how they distribute the prize. That doesn’t mean you have to give everything away – it comes down to who you choose to give to, and your reasons behind it.  To enter, register on the SlashGear forum and reply to this post confirming you’re taking part: that logs your IP, to make sure people only enter once. Then email your entry to hpmagic@slashgear.com, making sure to give a link to your forum reply so we know who’s who.
Entries must be submitted by midnight central time on December 17th, and HP have agreed to pay for worldwide shipping so you don’t need to be in the US to take part. Full rules are below, and remember the forum post to comment in is here. Good luck!

The theme of this competition is a giveaway in the spirit of the holidays and my idea for a competition stems around awarding others for making great posts.
The regular members and the more astute among you will have noticed that I have been fiddling with the reputation system for the last few days. This system is something that came with vBulletin 3.x several years ago and we have never really had a serious use for it… until now.
The site has two numbers to do with reputation: reputation and power. The first is your total amount of reputation recieved and power is the amount of reputation that you can give others.

Here’s the important part though: part of this contest is sharing the magic, so this contest is all about you giving away part of what you win. So here’s the deal: I’m going to numerically pull one random post here as the winner, but when I review that entry, if it doesn’t meet the qualifications, another random entry will be selected. So what are the qualifications? Telling me how you’d share this prize pack, with whom, and why. With this bundle consisting of four computers, three of them laptops, it’s really more than one person needs – and in these troubled economic times, there are going to be people around you, charities, schools, etc. that could put some of this hardware and software to good use, right? So if you won this $6000 prize pack, who would you give some of the hardware to, and how would they use it? I’ll be looking for a detailed explanation of how you’d share this, but the requirement is only that you give away at least one of the laptops or the desktop computers. As long as you meet the requirement of giving away one of the computers, your entry is valid.

As always, if you enter on another site we would appreciate you letting them know that we sent you. We would also love to hear back if you are the winner; we love “happy ending” stories! ![]()
