Re: OSNN HP Pavillion HDX Dragon Giveaway

dunno why i'm even gonna try. never win jack. well.... can't really say NEVER. i got a free copy of Call of Duty 4 from a ClubSLI automatic raffle (which i won probably 2 a week or two after i STOPPED playing the copy i purchased), and a free copy of Vista Ultimate that should be arriving sometime soon that i might just eBay since i'm already running Vista Ultimate, and i didn't really win that since it was for that whole usage study thing they did for a few months, and all i really did was leave my laptop running, doing next to nothing.... and not even running the entire time.

Guess i can say..... never won anything EXPENSIVE.
 
Re: OSNN HP Pavillion HDX Dragon Giveaway

haha.. well, thats better than my 10$ led fan :p
 
Re: OSNN HP Pavillion HDX Dragon Giveaway

Re: OSNN HP Pavillion HDX Dragon Giveaway

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
