    Xmas AMD XP1800 contest

    So now that I've had my chance to win, I'll share info for other not knowing yet. AMD is giving away 50 new XP1800 combo's with a MSI motherboard at select cities throughout the USA. You can also now win online. But anyway you should go HERE! and register and get the specific info. Maybe we could post the next city info too, but I kindof think a person should go through a little bit of trouble to get it.

    Post any tips!
    Here's mine:
    You don't need to get there an hour early, 30-15min fine.
    They now check your hand to see if it matches the stamp on your ticket.
    If they find you cheating you get disqualified; multiple tickets.
    If you get multiple tickets, have budies stand in opposite lines as you so you can swap if you win.

    Good luck 14 more cities.

    If it ever makes it to Washington DC, that'll be one of the only times I'll gladly, and willingly wake up in the single-digit hours.

    Thumbs down only 2 more!

    Is this close enough?

    Date: 11/21/01
    City: Baltimore, MD
    Place: WHITE MARSH MALL - 8200 Perry Hall Blvd. - Baltimore, MD
    (Located on the North Parking Lot by JC Penneys)
    Time: 6:00 A.M.

    I would say at the Austin event there were only around 500 people, but according to other people who can't count on other forums, there were as many as 1500. But I still say there were only about 500. I even tried to count them.

    Well, I drove a 100 miles to the Austin event. I know distance is all relative. I get used to drving 3 hours to get places. And then I knew a person from R.I. who couldn't stand it.
