A Giveaway to Beat All Giveaways

http://live.pirillo.com/ – Yeah, this is a true “give away” for my Acer Ferrari 5000 notebook – running a legal copy of Windows Vista. Why am I doing this? Well, for a lot of reasons. Namely, it’s to help spread the word about our new efforts in the live chat room and video tutorials. This is not a contest – and the recipient will be chosen at random.

You can do one of two (or both) of the following to float onto my give away radar – both of which have to do with subscribing to my podcast feed.

  1. Post a video response on YouTube (specifically, to my Vista Laptop Giveaway video), proving that you have subscribed to my podcast feed by holding up your device and showing everyone. Subscribe to http://feeds.pirillo.com/ChrisPirilloShow in any podcast program (like iTunes, Zune, PSP, etc.). Showing me a Web page will not suffice.
  2. Write a review for "The Chris Pirillo Show" in the iTunes store – just be honest with your review, as flattery won’t curry favor or increase your odds. If you already have iTunes installed, you can use this podcast link.

That’s it. One person will get this laptop, which I’ve hardly used:

  • Built on AMD’s Direct Connect Architecture (AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile Technology)
  • ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 with 512 MB of HyperMemory
  • A bright 15.4" WSXGA display with 16 ms response time (widescreen)
  • HDMI port – an uncompressed digital audio / video interface that perfectly reproduces source content

So, simply post a video response with proof of your subscription and/or write a review of this podcast in iTunes. Either way, subscribe!

Mr. Pirillo – What a nice promotional. Just left my review at iTunes. Has to wind its way through the snake now. But, it occurred to me… how will you award someone based on an iTunes review? (you don’t have access to their contact info!) Well, unless they’re smarty mcsmarty pants and leave their info in a comment here… ;)

Done — added my review. Doesn’t show up right away, but it should be there shortly.

Cheers Chris — love your work.

I’d enter as I desperately need a better notebook, but I think most people might not appreciate me entering considering my Lockergnome affiliation.

With that said, I use Democracy Player to catch everything you toss out there. ;)

Left a review and posted my first video response through the direct-record feature – worked pretty well :)

I’m looking forward to more great content to get me through the commute to work – thanks Chris!

Hey Chris,

Gee, that looks a WHOLE lot like one of those Acer Ferraris that Microsoft was giving away a few months back…!

Would it happen to be one and the same?!

Hi Chris,

This is great. Would you by any chance ship abroad in case the winner were to be outside the US?

Wow nice prize! Its not every day you get these great odds of picking up such a nice machine. Cheers!

Well, I’ve subscribed and left a comment. But not really sure of the criteria. I’ve never listened before to your show so I can’t really give it a 5 or a 1 star review. But based on the 2 shows I listened to before writing the review I gave it 4 stars. Felt like that was a good ’safe’ rating without kissing ass just to kiss ass. My iPod is still a Gen. 1 non-video iPod so I’m gonna have to watch on my desktop for awhile…or hopefully a new laptop. Anyway, reviewed ya under the name Atari26, on the iTunes store. Thanks.

Hello Chris, I enjoy your news letters and video feeds but I have no ability to podcast. Can’t even dream of affording an Acer Ferrari. I look forward to more of what I can get…Thank you.
