| "The contest will award prizes to the PC designer and manufacturer that designs and builds the "smallest and most stylish home PCs" powered by Intel's Viiv technology. " By Mark LaPedus EE Times I wonder if it is limited to pc manufacturers or can any one participate? It would be neat to give it a try. I wonder if it has to use Win as the os? If it can use any os (ie; eCS), it could help promote OS/2?

| "$1m in total prize money isn't to be sniffed at - but there's a minor spanner in the works. The competition is open only to OEM and ODM manufacturers, and not to individuals. For the few OEM and ODMs still reading, the competition closes on March 2nd 2007, and entry forms need to be in by January 15th 2007." Actually there is also a major 'spanner in the works'. It seems one is limited to using Win as the os. |
