Hooray, it is OSNN competition time again and therefore time for me to come up with a cunning and overly complicated process for you to win some goodies! Not so much this time, it is an easy one, I promise!
But first a quick recap! OSNN is once again proud to be working with Ivy Worldwide, HP, Microsoft and Timbuk2 to bring one lucky OSNN member the following:
For information on the other sites taking part in the competition check out
this thread.
I will also posting be posting infrequent updates on Twitter @electronicpunk although Jewelzz is far better at being social than I am. I appreciate the influx of Twitter followers, although our competition will not be going down that path!
So what do you have to do? Five things!
- Become a member of the OSNN community (it is free and you will see less adverts that guests just by completing the sign up process.)
- Make sure to validate your account! This means providing us with a valid email address; and upon receiving an email clicking the link.
- Create a single thread, or reply to one so that your post count becomes 1. (This gains you PM abilities) Please be aware that certain posts will need to be moderated and it may take a little while for moderators and or admins to get to your post and mark it.
- Complete this survey: http://websurvey.burstmedia.com/surveyid1/surveysite.asp?Qhcode=ad10786a&Qhcat=13 (What! Shocking I know, but I need to get demographic data to my advertisers to show them that we don't want white teeth adverts and that we are a tech site.)
- Send a private message to “OSNN Competition” (PM to osnncompetition ), telling me in a single paragraph how you are going to use the two laptops together and also what the text says on the last survey page before it sends you back to OSNN.
- Now the OSNN twist... No, just kidding that is all.
The winner will be selected on the 27th August.
Who can enter?
Any email-validated registered user is able to enter this competition other than myself, OSNN staff and my family! With the exception of the following people who have won hardware from OSNN competitions over the last year:
Apologies to those people, but I do want to spread the goodies around and don't want to get any hopes up!
