I am please to be able to tell you that TheDigitalLifestyle.com is part of one of the biggest giveaways I have ever seen. Together with 30 other sites (see list below) we will be giving away 31 HP HDX Dragon Entertainment Notebook and software worth over $4500 and I don’t even think it’s available in the UK yet!
Each site will be giving the laptop and software bundle on a set day starting May 9th and finishing June 8th. TheDigitalLifestyle.com’s date is May 16th. You will have to be alert, I am going to be posting how to win on Friday 9th and drawing the winner May 16th. The best way to keep up to date is subscribe to the RSS feed so you don’t miss out. I will also be giving a preview to how to enter on [TMCS] so keep listening.
I am going to reviewing the monster Notebook before sending it to the winner as it makes a great Media Center machine, here is the spec:
The complete list is on this this page (by Mauricio from Geekzone)
So one lucky reader of this blog is going to win the fantastic prize (I will ship it after I have reviewed it), you will need to keep watching the site for more info and checkout the other sites participating in the giveaway they are all coming up with different ways of winning. Thanks to HP and Buzz Corps for putting this thing together
Hmmm, I wonder if I can win too lol, fingers crossed!
Gotta be honest though, im sure HP won’t want you ‘reviewing’ it (opening it first and playing) before you send it to the winner. I think that’s well out of order. You should send it unopened to the winner, thats only fair and non of the other sites will be opening theirs.
Hmmm, I will be watching this closely, just to be sure it’s fair 😉
no the deal is I get to review it, HP are happy with that. I won’t be installing anything on it
If you not happy with that don’t enter. some of the other 31 sites are not reviewing it as its not relevent to them but other are.
I am defently reviewing it as it is very relevent to this site.
I already have one and it’s awesome. (I wouldn’t mind winning another, though.)
I’m actually wondering if anyone has suggestions for a case to protect it. I’m looking at this one, which looks kinda perfect, but before I take the plunge I thought I’d make a few posts asking for suggestions/advice.
I need a laptop bad because i’m still using a old HP OmniBook with windows ME on it, I’ll be very appreciated if I win this HP Dragon, it will help get threw school.
I do hope to win this fabulous laptop it would totally change my life, I could do my music and start on my career in music. There is so much more I could do with this I thank you for giving me the opportunity.
The dragon will rock my world because I am the only one in my team at work not having a laptop and I would like to have one of my own since the AGP slot in my desktop board is so loose that it doesn’t allow me to use AGP card to play Pro Evolution Soccer (soccer game). Since I can’t put in much for a laptop, went in for a second hand desktop recently. I have never won anything online, hoping that I get a hold of the dragon.
This Laptop is SIC! Most of the contestant won’t even know what to do with this thing! Ian I would love to hear what your honest review of this machine is.
You aren’t really playing with your toys if you haven’t crushed the memory by firing away on as many open Apps as you can. All at once. I bet this thing can play multiple HD movies and clips at once. Interesting to see what it can do.
I just noticed that I wasn’t signed in on my last post. So lets try this again. This is a really great prize and I thank you for offering this giveaway. Would love to win this. Thanks.
and where have you hidden the rules for entry?
I’d love the opportunity to win this, but need to find out how to enter. (or am I being the grey haired blonde again?)
Man that is one nice looking notebook.Hp really did a great job on what to use for the cpu and video,will make a great desktop replacement for who wins it.I myself would love to win this notebook as then i can give it to my wife so that she can have a computer for herself and we not have to fight over who gets to use this desktop… 🙂 Well cheers to whoever get this and have fun with it….
So far at least 4 out of 8 are from outside the US. France, Denmark, UK, and Chile (that’s me, I won the one at ars technica). I say Europeans have a good chance, they already won 3 😀

Gotta be honest though, im sure HP won’t want you ‘reviewing’ it (opening it first and playing) before you send it to the winner. I think that’s well out of order. You should send it unopened to the winner, thats only fair and non of the other sites will be opening theirs.

no the deal is I get to review it, HP are happy with that. I won’t be installing anything on it
If you not happy with that don’t enter. some of the other 31 sites are not reviewing it as its not relevent to them but other are.
I am defently reviewing it as it is very relevent to this site.
