CONTEST CLOSED
Congratulations to Danni Brigante, comment #1927
Honestly, we thought that we would never be able to top our BlogHer giveaway. What in the world would beat the chance to come to NYC, drive in a limo and get to hang out with us? This will….
We’re giving away a brand new HP TouchSmart 600 Desktop PC, fully equipped with Windows 7.
I’ll repeat that. We’re giving away this unbelievably beautiful touch screen PC, the HP TouchSmart 600, a value of over $1500.
Since I’m not the most technically-inclined girl (and that’s putting it lightly), let me break it down to you with some real facts about the HP TouchSmart 600 with Windows 7:
- Features like Snap, Pin, Shake, Peak, and Jump Lists in Windows 7 Home Premium make it easy for HP TouchSmart 600 users to navigate the system quickly to easily find the documents they use most often.
- 23″ 1080p full HD diagonal 16:9 widescreen display
- Premium quality speakers produce a crisp, clear sound for enjoying music and video. Windows 7 Play To feature also allows users to play media through a home video/audio system or other devices for a bigger boom.
- Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor delivers powerful performance
- Integrated hardware and software technology, like HDMI, audio/video inputs, Windows Media Center and TouchSmart Live TV (with optional TV tuner), give users a range of options for viewing video, recording TV, and playing game consoles (like xBox) on their HP TouchSmart 600.
- Video chat with friends using the built-in webcam and microphone
- The award-winning multi-touch PC features motions such as pinch, rotate, arc, flick and press and drag let users zip through applications, photos and more.
- Windows 7 fast start up and shut down gives users easier access to their HP TouchSmart 600, which includes a long list of amazing touch-enabled apps like Twitter, Hulu, Netflix, Pandora and more.
According to CNet, the new HP TouchSmart 600 has “the most comprehensive and compelling set of features of any all-in-one launching alongside Windows 7.”
It’s sleek design will compliment any style in any room, including being able to be mounted on the wall, making it the perfect choice for those who have limited space. Oh, and in case you didn’t catch on yet, the sleek 23″ monitor is fully touch enabled adding to the style and interactivity of the unit.
Windows 7 Specs
Microsoft and HP collaborated to create best-in-class touch technology that melds the power of Windows 7 with HP’s revolutionary TouchSmart PCs. The HP TouchSmart 600 showcases this technology within its sleek design, HD widescreen, BluRay, adjustable webcam and more.
- Jump Lists – Speedy access to your favorite pictures, songs, websites, and documents.
- Windows Live Essentials – Free software that makes a PC running Windows 7 do more great things. Things like e‑mail, instant messaging, photo editing, and blogging.
- Windows Taskbar – Better thumbnail previews, easier-to-see icons, and more ways to customize.
- Remote Media Streaming – Enjoy music and video on your home PC—even when you’re not at home.

This freaking awesome gift would be for my awesome kiddo, Brian. Brian has Asperger’s Syndrome and because it’s hard for him to socialize with other kids, he enjoys his time on his computer. However, his computer is now nearly 5 years old. I just know how much a really nice computer would mean to him. Money is really tight here (having moved to another state to get services for Brian and having not sold our house in OH yet) and we can’t afford to buy him a computer right now – but to win one would be fantastic!

This would be a totally awesome gift for myself! I need another desktop for schoool and for my son to use.
This gift would be for my hubby because he has given me so much in the last 15 years. And while I’d like you all to think I’m talking love and support, he has also supported my love of technology. He has upgraded my tech stuff without question and even surprised me on a few occasions. He still is using one of our old old computers so that I can have the latest and greatest. So, to give him something new and cool would be fantabulous!!!

absolutelyfreakinawesome holiday gift would be for.ME baby who else?
Not to sound selfish but this one would be for me or at least the business I am starting. I have an older desktop PC whic does not work for the business as I must be on the road a lot-I will be performing ceremonies for people- so need something portable. I have been out of work since early 2008 so did not have the money for a new laptop so this would be a blessing to help get me back on my feet with the new business.
This would be for me. I love this prize and I would enjoy it immensely. Thank your for offering this prize.
My 13 year old son who is a total tech nerd would love it.

This awesome gift would be for me
I’m losing some mobility in my hands because of my MS and this would be a godsend. A way to keep my business open a little bit longer and less pain for me.
Also, my computer-challenged fire fighter husband would use it – he’s a two finger typer and a weather addict. This would allow him to do his weather forecasting a little easier.
Thanks for letting me dream

This computer will be for the whole family. Our present computer has about had it. My husband is going through school so this wil be great for typing up papers and researching on the internet. My 6 yr old son would love this as well. He is not very socialable, though not because he is shy. With this computer he will be able to play his games they he so much enjoy playing. He is very good with computers at age 6 so I am sure he could show me a few things too
I just like to stay in touch with fam and friends so that is what I would use it for. (My fingers are crossed!!! Pick me!!! Pick me!!!)
I would love to give this to my dear friend and pastor, Kevin. He’s been wanting one but can’t afford to buy one. For all he does for us, I’d love to be able to do this for him.

This awesome gift would be for myself, reason being that I’m an artist, as well as the fact that my schooling is pc-based, and I am currently working with an old laptop that barely runs. It was low end when I got it, and so now I am running out of space, and always fighting the lag. It’s become very hard for me to do art of any sort, even simple picture editing, and it can barely handle opening documents and researching for school.
Being that I eventually plan to have a web-based business, it’s absolutely necessary that I have a working pc that can handle simple applications. What I have now can’t.
This totally awesome gift would be for my and the wife. We never buy presents for each other only for others so we could finally give something to ourselves that would be a blast to play with !!
http://twitter.com/DarlingDove/status/6697906318 I Tweeted about this!

This absolutelyfreakinawesome holiday gift would be for me. Mine! All mine!
This absolutelyfreakinawesome holiday gift would be for me! I haven’t had a working computer in two years, and I’d really love to not be forced to share with my kids and my parents! LOL
Though I would love to keep this FABULOUS gift for myself, if I won I would be unselfish and give it to my husband who doesn’t have a computer of his own (and always does without so his family doesn’t have too

This would be a gift for my parents. They are always doing for others and making sure they kids and grandkids are taken care of. They need a new computer and this would be a dream come true computer for my mom especially!!
I really need a new computer I am still using windows 98
I would be selfishly keeping it for myself!
This would be the perfect gift for our whole family!!!
It would be for me,myself and I since we are the only ones here.
I would keep it for myself. My kids each have newer computers for school, and my husband has a laptop, but I am using an old desktop computer that we’ve had for years. For once I would treat myself and keep this for me!
I’m pretty sure I’d keep this absolutelyfreakinasweome computer for myself because it just looks fun, but I would love to share my old one with one of the charities I know of that could use it.
Thanks for the giveaway!

This beauty will go to me…I am cleaning off my desk as I write…bring it on! What a giveaway!
This would go to my husband – his computer is so outdated! He would love it.
I just returned to part time work outside of the home after 10 years staying home with my kids. Our dinosaur of a computer just popped up with the following message “It’s been 123 months since your computer has been updated with Windows software” – and now it won’t even boot up.
So…this computer would be for my family.
I would love this as my computer is so old and slow.
This would be an awesome gift for my incredible husband – he would absolutely love it!

This is amazing!! Thanks so much for hosting this wonderful giveaway and for givign us this chance, Nicole, you’re awesome. I would LOVE this brand new Touchsmart for my mother! My mom is disabled, and has trouble using her arms, which means she often can’t use a regular desktop computer, as she has trouble using a computer mouse sometime. My mom likes using the internet, and she currently has an outdated HP Pavillion desktop from 2003. I would be so beyond thrilled to win this for my mom, she would be so excited! The Touchsmart’s design is sleek, it’s much more compact than a usual PC, and the touchscreen would make use so easy for my mom! She could actually touch the screen with a finger, rather than having to grasp and pull a computer mouse to do every thing. She feels bad about her disability and often is embarrassed that she can’t do something as simple as browse the internet without becoming sore and or finding it too difficult. Just think of how the Touchsmart will make it possible for disabled people and children with autism! HP has really done an awesome thing by creating this PC. This would make our Christmas holiday truly amazing! Thanks so much! Happy holidays!
