AMD investor relation will never sponsor such a contest. I think SI might, considering how much attention it is getting from other message boards. I will email them to see if they would offer a 6 month subscription to the winner. Not really important to the lifetime members but then again, SI has nothing to gain further from a lift time members. Mani

Petz, Why not contact AMD investor relations and request that they offer at least an Athlon t-shirt to the contest winner. Are you serious, Petz? I'm not sure if AMD would consider it. Even if they like to, there could be myriad of reasons that may prohibit from sponsoring the contest. I'll give it a try though ;o) Regards, Goutama

RE:"re:contest prize. Why not contact AMD investor relations and request that they offer at least an Athlon t-shirt to the contest winner. Heck, ask 'em for a Compaq 750 MHz system, but only if the winner is an AMD stockholder. With the participation you're getting already, that alone should drive the price up!"... No way AMD would touch that... Jim
