I need this laptop to improve my boyfriend & I’s relationship, since we’re always fighting over our laptop. He wants it for gaming, I need it for schoolwork. Thanks so much!

Being stuck indoors working on my desktop can cramp my creativity. A laptop would let me vary my working location and get the creative juices (and a few starbucks) flowing

I hope I am entering in time. I thought deadline stated Friday, but it didn’t list a time. I could be wrong.

Anyway, there are several reasons why I would love to win this computer. This computer would be extremely helpful because it is great at running all the graphic programs. Normally, most computers can handle only runnig one program or two at the very most. With this computer, I could have several programs open at once while I’m working on a design. Most computer would crash because they aren’t powerful enough, but this HP Workstation is. In addition, this computer would help me lauch my graphics and apparel business.

Again, I hope this contest is still accepting entries.

Thanks so much!

I’m a film and theater director student from Serbia and I’m also attending animation classes (Maya, Max). Even within theater i specialized in video/visualisations that are shown during plays. This would be a perfect tool for editing and creating content as well as carrying it for shows.

Guess it’s too late to enter now… but I’ll give it a shot.. I need a laptop because it’s a delicious thing to have. With it I could photoshop the hell out of everything, play games, listen to music and be a photographer at last. With the aid of a camera of course.. but the laptop would be delicious.
