HP accessory giveaway

hp accessories

What better way to celebrate the labor day weekend than with some free accessories for your netbook? Yeah, I know, that doesn’t make any sense to me either. But the fine folks at HP and BuzzCorps sent me a few goodies recently, so I figured I’d pass along the free to you.

Here are the prizes:


HP V125w 16gb USB Flash Drive

This little flash drive is valued at about $50 and hold 16G of data. You don’t have to use it with a netbook, but it sure would look nice quadrupling the amount of available storage space on your Asus Eee PC 701.


HP Wireless Laser Mini Mouse, black

This wireless mouse runs on a single AA battery and comes with a wireless USB dongle that fits in the base of the mouse when you’re not using it. The mini mouse is valued at $35.

How to enter:

Just leave a comment below. That’s pretty much it, but make sure that when you leave a comment you enter a valid email address or login with your Facebook or Twitter credentials. I’ll be taking entries through 11:00 PM  Eastern on Monday, September 7th.

Two winners will be randomly selected, one for each prize. Winners do not get to pick which prize they will receive. Employees and contractors of Liliputing need not apply (because they’re disqualified), as are close personal friends and family members of Brad Linder.

The contest is open to anyone, anywhere in the world, but I’m footing the bill for shipping, so don’t expect it to arrive next day if you live a few continents away, OK?

Liliputing HP Magic Giveaway: Enter to win $6000 worth of stuff!

Update: Please read the instructions. Entries must be submitted in the Liliputing Forums. I will delete any entries posted in the comments. Please use the comments to ask questions, or, you know… leave comments.
I’ve been talking about the HP Magic Giveaway for weeks. And now it’s finally your chance to enter. HP and Microsoft are teaming up with 50 different blogs to give away $6000 worth of gear to readers of each site. I’ll tell you how to win in a moment, but first let’s take a look at the prize package:

Those of you keeping count may have noticed that the list includes 4 computers, a printer, a media cennter extender, some software, and other goodies. Now as much as I know y’all would love to have an all-in-one desktop, and a tiny, medium sized and large laptop, I’m going to go out on a limb and assume few of you absolutely need all four computers. But they’re all part of a single prize  package.

So here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to ask you to tell me what you would do with this prize package. And I’m going to encourage your to share at least some of the love by giving one or more of the computers to a friend, family member, or colleague who could really use it or by choosing a charity, non-profit, or other group that you think should receive one or more of the PCs. The contest is open to anyone in the world (fortunately the sponsors are picking up the tab for shipping costs), and we’ll ship the prize package both to the winner and to whatever second site that person choses.

You can find the complete rules for the contest after the break.
