How Risky? :shifty:

Aww man. I think I may have to go ahead with one of my plans. It's gonna be risky, however I work every night this week and have college during the day. Everything will need to be made/carried out on Saturday and sent in Saturday evening...

Its strange how some persons are moaning over the Touch Smart. If you want it that bad, there are 49 other websites giving it away too, so its worth a try at one of those too.

Can ALL the submissions be made public once the competition is over? Might get some good laughs.

I enjoyed listening to the "Pet Dragon" ones awhile ago... :laugh:

I'm not sure about all the submissions, but it is a good idea. I know the winners will be posted for everyone to see.

On a side note, i can't believe people are against giving some prizes to charity. Makes me sick really...

Eric our wonderful coder is doing a public gallery. I can't promise when it will be ready but it should be soon :)

Once the competition is over all entries will go into the public gallery and then we will judge the entries.

Are animated GIFs allowed?

We are judging this based on one image so no, no videos or animated GIFs are allowed.

This should be interesting.. I'll try and figure something out to do and submit and I as well would like to see the entries after the contest is over.. would be a good thing!!

Yup that will definitely happen. Depending on how people flag their entries when they submit them we might get to see the majority of them publicly before the contest finishes next Saturday evening :)

Any idea I have come up with is probably too much work to do in the end, I am a guy that does all his work in the digital realm, this fancy real life stuff, ergh, tough.

Though I would be quite happy about winning a Neowin Mug, and also document its use. :D

And I think its a great idea that your giving the Touchsmart to the childrens hospice, and finding out how they have used it and what they think of it.

Its an interesting idea, and its also something unique that will stand out, and this is your give away too, so it is really up to you, it is a competition give away and people think they get say how you do things and they know what to do best.

It will be great to read about it. :D

I didn't enter the last one, but I'm giving it a shot this time around. Just submitted mine already, I'm keeping it private for now. My submission's more mysterious and creepy than 'magical.' :ninja:

I'll post more details about my picture when it's made public at the end of this week. :)

Oh no, well you are gonna laugh at mine for sure. :D

Yours is juicy. (pun intended)

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
    • It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
