Who Won The Double Notebook Giveaway??!

HP-Giveaway-lead

The time has come.

It is finally time to announce the winner of CollegeCandy’s Back-To-School Double Notebook Giveaway. Man, that’s a mouthful. (That’s what she said.)

There were a lot of people out there with some totally craptastic computers, so we really do feel bad that we don’t have hundreds of these things to give away. But we don’t. And, seeing how cheap the HP DV2 is, it really shouldn’t take that long for all of you to save up (return those beer cans, people!) and bring one home for yourself.

But that’s besides the point. It’s time to announce the winner. And it is:

Wait for it.
Waaaaait for it.

Christa from UConn!! If the picture of her computer isn’t sad enough, here is what she had to say in a plea to the CollegeCandy judging committee:

hp 5

I know this crap-top looks sweet…  12, count them 12 MB of RAM! INTEGRATED roller ball mouse and floppy drive too!  But there are some negative points…  WI-FI – none.  Wireless – none.  Integrated ethernet and modem – NONE!  In fact, to even access the internet I need an adapter card, that connects to another adapter with a LAN adaptor.  I wanted to sign up for an online class this semester – this beast just can’t meet the computer requirements of the class.  So embarrassing :(

We’ll be emailing Christa later this morning to get all her personal deets, but if you see her around campus or Facebook, wish that woman a big, fat congratulations.

The CC Weekly Weigh In: Let’s Say Thanks

Like most families, mine gathers around the dinner table on Thanksgiving and (after making fun of each other for a few minutes) shares what they are most thankful for that year. Growing up, I hated this tradition; it was so cheesy and lame. But now that I’m an adult, going around the table at Thanksgiving allows me to tell my family how much I love them…
