Always worth a shot, thanks for the link.

 

[SemperFi]

Awesome, one more chance to win.

 

[KokomoGST]

Bet they don't come anywhere near NYC again...

 

[J1mb0b]

Thanks dude - maybe this time........

 

[sekser]

just took the quiz. maybe i'll win something this time. I doubt it.

 

[FloridaBoy3]

If you go to one of these events (I live in Orlando), what are your odds of winning? Is it first come first serve? Do they play games? Can anyone provide details?

 

[Braves]

ARG. Is there a reason they do this on the day that I go back to school?!?!?!

 

[Uclagamer_99]

there is no trick...it's pure luck unless you bring some friends who DON'T want the prize if they win (highly unlikely) otherwise informing friends about it lowers your chances of winning...selfish but statistical true

 

[ianbergman]

Sigh. Just as I leave a city, something like this comes along. It always happens.

 

[stockjock]

Yeah baby....there coming to my town finally....O-town has finally hit the big time!!!

 

[LordSnailz]

woot! santa clara! how early should I be there?

 

[Danzilla]

Only seventy-five will be given away at the two locales. Another hundred and fifty is pegged for online registrants.

 

[EagleKeeper]

Will try send my father up there to Altamonte (Orlando)

He gets up early enough anyhow, and he may enjoy what they have to show.

 

[tallest1]

how do you do the quiz?
edit: Got it.

 

[LivinLaVivaPollo]

I won online a couple of weeks ago, so your chances online are a lot better than going out into the blistering cold, but Santa Clara at 6 in the morning isn't so bad. This time around, they might be giving away XP 1900+'s with hopefully better motherboards.

 

[Snegbot]

Ripped from the promotion rules:


<< "Seventy-Five (75) Prizes per Event: An AMD Athlon XP Processor 2000+ with a Gigabyte Motherboard Model #GA7-DX." >>



Do you have to get there when it starts or earlier? I work nights and get done @ 6:30. So I'm wondering if I have a chance at getting anything if I get there around 7:00

 

[blots]

nice--hopefully my online entries pull through

 

[DDad]

Kokomo-
They won't - NY has some consumer protection laws that make it difficult, if not totally impossible for AMD to have a giveaway there :-(

 

[Joony]

consumer protection laws eh? that just sucks...

Well, I was at the StL giveaway, they closed registration at exactly 6:00 am- you may have to see if you can get off about a hour early

 

[vash]

AMD is great. The Micro Center is a bit far for my brother, but he'll probably try to make it out there by 6am. AMD has made me happy, I won their combo a few weeks back and it arrived last week.

[LordSnailz]
