I have been experiencing a lot of computer woes and I'm afraid the next time the poor old thing crashes, it won't be able to be revived - and no, I don't know how old it is. But we're getting pretty creative. The Lenovo A70z ThinkCentre All-In-One Desktop PC seems to have everything I'm looking for. I love the built-ins: webcam, microphone, anti-theft, etc. And I love that it is so compact, it takes up on 1/3 of the space of a regular desktop (you can even mount the monitor on the wall!). Winning the Lenovo A70z would be a godsend and a dream come true. I'm keeping my fingers crossed....

My ex-wife took me for everything I had – home, Desktop, laptop and money to replace these items. When moving into my efficiency apartment, I fell down a flight of stairs breaking both legs so now I can’t even get to the local library to use their computers. I asked if I could use a computer from work but my boss said that since I would be out of work for so long (you know, because of the legs) that they couldn’t hold my current programming position for me. Instead, he said I could return to a janitorial position or something in the lunch room and that those positions don’t get computers.
As if all of that weren’t enough, my therapist was killed in a murder/suicide another patient who grew frustrated with his progress.
I need this computer to find another therapist, update my resume, look for another job, and find a hit-man for my ex.

I deserve it because... um... It'll help me cure AIDS and cancer!

I'm actually interested in this computer because of the desk space I'll save.

Because I have the lowest User ID of all the participants?

I wish to win this computer not for myself but for my wife. She has worked very hard throughout her life yet something bad always happens to her. Just three years ago, her life took a major turn when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Yet she still had to work despite her illness because our savings were not enough to pay for her staggering medical bills. We even moved back with my parents so that we can squeeze as much money possible out of our expenses. It was perhaps the toughest three years we have ever lived. Thankfully she is a strong woman and has since recovered. Unfortunately, in another twist of event, she was laid off from her job. After couple months of actively seeking employment without much luck, she has decided to go back to school to get her master degree as to improve her chance of employment when the economy gets better. Right now, she is taking summer classes at our local college and working part-time as well. As for me, I am juggling two jobs right now. The two of us share a desktop computer that is a bit outdated. My wife often expresses her frustration while she works on her school work because our clunker would either freeze or lag terribly after some time of use. And adding one GB of ram only improved its performance a little bit. Sadly, we couldn't afford to buy a new computer because we could barely get our ends meet every month and our debts seem to keep on growing despite our best efforts. So as you can see, winning this computer would truly be a huge blessing to our life. It would really put a big smile on her face and mine too.

Unemployed geek, need a cool toy like this to boost my morale.

I don't know if I can make a case for deserving this great computer, but I would love to have such an aesthetically pleasing and space-efficient computer for my own. Plus it would allow me to turn over my old computer to the kids (instead of sharing like I do now).

#33 By 361201 (24.26.134.206) at 7/22/2010 7:05:28 PM

Same as the last contest :

"Don't know if it makes me the most deserving or not, but I need this because my old Dell is near death. It takes forever to open aps and Photoshop barely runs now. And my laptop has some wires poking out the side and the 't' sticks. "

#34 By 370338 (68.99.12.78) at 7/22/2010 7:25:04 PM
Because I deserve it? HA. My wife works from home and her computer, like mine, is aging rapidly. This would help her immensely.

Thanks for the opportunity.

I can't honestly say why I'm more deserving than everyone else until I see why everyone else is so deserving. So lets leave it at me wanting a fresh, new computer.

Thanks

#37 By 370342 (154.20.47.133) at 7/22/2010 7:57:20 PM
I don't know if I'm the most deserving to win this, I'd just like to replace my old old computer.

#38 By 361393 (72.54.242.102) at 7/22/2010 7:58:21 PM
My little son need a PC. And, I think compact design is good to little kids.

#39 By 23443 (99.21.53.46) at 7/22/2010 8:05:32 PM
I would tell you why I deserve this beautiful machine, but my intent isn't to keep it, but to give it as a gift to a family member who desperately needs a new computer. He has special needs and loves to look up information and watch videos on his favorite hobby, console video games. Currently, he is using a 7 year old PC that was the base model when he bought it. I'd love to be able to give him a new machine that was up to speed!!

Thanks,

Dave H.

While I get to play with nice computers at work, I do not have a nice computer at home... not that that makes me deserving, just well...

#41 By 370348 (174.7.91.68) at 7/22/2010 8:58:12 PM
I would like to get a nice computer for my Mother and Grandmother that is both easy to use and has a very small footprint.

Thanks.

#42 By 370407 (68.196.101.200) at 7/22/2010 11:19:26 PM
This computer would give me a chance to actually use a computer ion my house before 11pm every night. With three kids and one computer its usually not free until they're in bed. Iwould put this one in the kitchen.

With its small footprint and built in wifi, its perfect! Now one of my kids can do homework AND eat dinner at the same time..

That's a very exciting opportunity ;)

I would love to have this to put in the dining area for convenient household use, eventually going with a wall mount. My older desktop is in my room because of space concerns, so it's not convenient for anyone other than me to use.

I entered the previous giveaway as well

#44 By 432 (209.167.107.58) at 7/23/2010 8:10:53 AM
I need to win because I switched to an iMac but still need a machine to do Visual Studio development on. The wife took over the iMac so I can't even use BootCamp.

Help, I need a Windows box fast!

PS - Any Chance the machine might have some screen shots of the new ActiveWin Site? Where is the new site?

I liked your FB page and left a like under the contest announcement. (Deb Anderson tnshadylady)

I can't say that I "deserve" this computer any more than anybody else, but I will say that I could sure use it!! Right now I'm struggling along with a twelve-yr old PC that really needs to be put out to pasture. (I still have a CRT, can you believe it!) This fancy new computer would not only bring me into the 21st century, but would free up some desk space I haven't seen in over a decade!!

#46 By 359222 (170.141.60.4) at 7/23/2010 9:23:09 AM
My first comment isn't showing up?? I'm a FB fan and "liked" the contest announcement. (Deb Anderson tnshadylady)

I need this computer to free up space. I still use a CRT, can you believe it?!

#47 By 359222 (170.141.60.4) at 7/23/2010 9:29:36 AM
oops I didn't give it time I see :)

I also entered the Lenovo A63 giveaway, so does this count for entry #2?

#48 By 370533 (71.68.127.139) at 7/23/2010 11:32:59 AM
My 4 year old loves using the computer, but it's in the office away from everything. This is the perfect PC for our kitchen desk and for our whole family to share.

#49 By 370534 (24.79.73.226) at 7/23/2010 11:38:15 AM
I deserve this system because I need to replace my 10 year old computer and I need to free up space so I can study on my table!

#50 By 31352 (206.123.214.254) at 7/23/2010 2:23:43 PM
I am a huge "Must have the latest" person and am alwaysing showing others which in turn gets some to buy.
