Please sign me up to win. I would like to give it to my son and teach him how to put computers together, use them properly and further his education with technology.

I'd love to win this awesome setup because my crappy mumble-mumble years old PC has seen its best days and is now staggering toward not just obsolescence but sheer oblivion. The two monitors would allow me to multi-task with the best of 'em. I have no tv or stereo, so I could watch video and listen to music all while being somewhat productive! Win-win!

My twitter id is @makeetis. I retweeted your message.

I would love to win this for my whole family. I can say, that with my being on the computer for many reasons and my daughters for their school work and papers they have to do for school, that this computer will get plenty of use.

My twitter id is lloydviente and I believe I deserve the Lenovo package because as a graphics designer, I do all my work on computers, so it's important that my system is fast. Unfortunately work has been hard to come by, so I cope with an aging computer--winning would be the boost I need to be more productive.

My dreams are filled with black and white; with a Lenovo I could dream in color.

good responses so far!! The system truly is great!

My twitter ID is kasexton. I am most deserving because I want to win this not for me but for my husband. He is a full time IT student and the computer we are currently using is pieced together from various outdated computers that were either given to him for parts or he found by dumpsters that had parts or wires he could salvage. He needs this so he can have a up to date computer to use for studying with since they are teaching him all the newest tech info it would make sense for him to at least have one thing that is a new tech device. With him in school and with 2 kids we just dont have the money to buy a new computer. He loves to go to Best Buy and look at all the new computers and devices that are out and fantasize about them , but that is all they can be right now is a fantasy. We will be celebrating our anniversary at the end of July and I could not think of a better gift for me to give him than a new computer to start out the Fall semester with to show him my appreciation for him and to show him how proud we are of him.

Any given program, when running, is obsolete. Any given computer when being used is obsolete. If this is the case then my computer is hurtling backwards in time to the Paleozoic period when the world was a gaseous ball and dinosaurs ruled without equals.

I would love for a chance to win this setup as then I can give my aging pc to my son and enjoy the 2 monitor setup and modern computer for myself. I work from home often, so it sure would be nice to be more productive with 2 screens rather than one! With the increased speed, I'm sure my productivity will increase as well. And my kid will be happy to have a computer all to himself...though of course with some major parental control settings! ;)

I tweeted here http://twitter.com/ActiveWin/status/17331103757. I'm back in school now that my kids are grown, loving it and doing great, but am working with an antiquated system that could definitely stand to be replaced with a fine, spanking new bells-and-whistles system like this Lenovo. Thanks for the chance to win it!

My Twitter id is chadbushey. I could really use a new pc. This one is seven years old and slowly failing. I am a student in college studying the IT field. It would be nice to have a pc that has hardware virtualization and more than one processor for the virtual computers that we have to run for our schoolwork. Currently I am unemployed with no unemployment compensation and going back to school to better myself so I can get a job. I could really use a break from life and winning this competition would really do that for me. Thanks.

I'd love to be able to work at home, but my old computer and lovely 17" LCD monitor is very restrictive. I'm spoiled at work with a dual-screen setup so I commute in every day. Having this rig at home would allow me to commute less and spend more time with the family. That and MW2 would totally rock. Daddy can't work all the time. I think my son might just be ready to start training in the grand arts of gaming. I have to admit I was shocked when you mentioned that it came with PS/2 ports, seriously? And to think I just donated my old PS/2 keyboard and mouse three years ago. I should have held onto them.

Because I am a longtime reader that harkens back to the days of SodaBlue and all the other awesome people who post here. Also I promise not to use the computer to bash Byron with witty insults that make fun of his continued apple computer use.

I need a new and faster computer to replace my 5 years old laptop running pentium m with only 512mb of ram. Damn it's slow

I could definitely use a new work PC. My current work PC is extremely slow so it would be great to have something that is up to date. The dual monitors would really help productivity.

I retweeted as @graywolfpack. I need a new system to replace my home PC that is out dated and on its last legs. Like so many others I sure can't afford one, so I hope to win one!

#24 By 359615 (98.185.56.127) at 6/29/2010 10:20:57 PM
Hi, I am @tamcho on Twitter. I would love to win this because our computer was purchased 4 years ago and it was USED! It's just slow and it's hard to accomplish anthing in a timely manner. Thanks for the chance to win such a great computer!

#25 By 359631 (99.227.176.196) at 6/29/2010 10:39:27 PM
My twitter id is TalkingColleen.

Why would I like to win? Well, my laptop is about 9 years old, my desktop is 7. I spend way too much time dealing with issues and conflicts due to the age of the machines and the slow response time that they have. And, well, heck, it's my birthday this weekend...the Lenovo would be a great (and very appreciated) gift!

Oh to be able to multi-task with those two monitors...heaven!
