ArsTechnica kicks off their HP "Dragon" contest

Panera1thumbYesterday, AbosoluteVista started the "31 Days of the Dragon" contest and today it's ArsTechnica's turn. Hop over to their site for their unique contest rules, which involve creating a game and including Ars in it somehow. Looks like it can be a custom game level, skin or whatever your skills can provide. Like all of the 31 sites giving away an HP Pavilion HDX notebook package, their contest will run for seven days. Each of the 31 packages is worth well over $5,000, so we'll be keeping you in the loop daily. We wouldn't want you to miss one of your many chances to win such an huge prize!

Oh and when I say "huge prize", I mean that figuratively and literally. Don't believe me? Just hit up Mobility Site where Jack Cook met up with Steven Hughes of BostonPocketPC. Steven has the giveaway Dragon for his site and took it to a local Panera Bread location to show Jack. This thing took up a whole table by itself as evidenced by this picture. Yowza!

Im in,
What do I need to do ? this system looks hot !

Let's wait till their turn comes, since each site comes up with its own rules.

Are any of the sites just going to have a give away competition, rather than make you do some work?
;)

Heck, if I was eligible I'd enter at all 31 sites!

They're allowed to use the systems?

Well count me in, I am definitely up for one of these. Would certainly be a drastic departure from Sempron I am currently typing this on. :)
